History Channel had a lengthy piece on the book a month or so ago a channel devoted to trivial nonsence, useless information nobody ever uses or needs in order to function adequetly. i purposely skipped history in school because it, to me, was not require information. i have NEVER had an employee ask me any history questions. Maybe, but it such INTERESTING trivial nonesense :) And I have, numerous times, and probably will even more in my future career. For me, it's a continuing quest to understand human nature. If we don't look back we lack a persective that can often put present day and even future events into greater clarity. And, I agree with you "interesting" evaluation, seeing how people behaved in the past is just interesting... it simulates my imagination and my intellect, for me, these are both enjoyable. The reason that you (as do I) get questions is because we are involved with significant work. I can imagine many kinds of employment wherein such communicatiions about wouldn't be necessary. After all, we don't get asked "Will you have fries with that and did you so have fries in the past?" [edited to add] Of course, I suppose a bit of history helps anywhere. After all, don't drunken lazy bums as "which of these dumpsters as the best rotted chicken?"
