Sitting And Learning
Last week I drove my son to the La Mesa Social Security office
because he needed a duplicate Social Security card. As we sat for
about an hour in the very busy waiting room, we watched the scrolling
marquee on the front wall. Facts and questions rolled by and naturally
many facts were related to Social Security. Some questions had
nothing to do with Social Security; they were fun trivial facts.
What kept us entertained was trying to answer the questions that
rolled by between the Social Security facts. We were entertained and
we were educated as we sat.
"What continent sits in all four hemispheres?" The African
Continent. I didn't know that.
A woman sitting near us joined in and we really had some laughs
saying "1 should have known that." Or "1 used to know that."
How many bones are in a shark's body? None. Their bodies are
made with cartilage, not bones.
How long is a galactic year? We never heard of a galactic year
and were curious to see the answer so we could get an answer to our
question of "What is a galactic year?" The Sun's period of rotation
around the center of the Galaxy, equal to about 225 million years.
That's a galactic year. That sure surprised me.
I found out that a full grown adult male giraffe has a tongue that is
about 20" long. This may not seem important to daily life, but from
this day forward, I don't think I will ever look at any giraffe without
thinking about the length of its tongue.
The most southern state capital is not in Florida; it's in Hawaii. We
all firmly believed it was in Florida. As we sat waiting our turn, we
sure learned a lot.
If we travel on the Panama Canal from the Pacific Ocean to the
Atlantic Ocean, what direction are we going? We knew this was a trick
question. We could just tell it was going to be a trick question. We
travel from west to east? No, we travel from Southeast to Northwest.
I looked it up to make sure the answer was right.
Several of my girlfriends and I listen to our radios to pass the time
while driving or while sitting in our cars in slow traffic. We listen to
stations where we can learn something and where we can educate
ourselves. I like listening to KPBS radio which also airs programs
from National Public Radio, Public Radio International and the British
Broadcasting Corporation. The programs are more in depth than
what regular TV or newspapers can report. For instance, on August
18th I learned about a program in San Diego City and County, called
Project 25, where they partner with the United Way to take 25 hard
core homeless people off the streets and provide them with a place to
live and with needed services. Essentially following the lead of Los
"Angeles Project 50, the program aims to cut costs of law enforcement
and medical services connected directly with chronically homeless
people. During the radio program, a study was quoted that found that
15 homeless San Diegans consumed $1.5 million in medica| services
over a year and a half. One person landed in the emergency room 68
times in a single year. Giving these chronically homeless people a
place to live and providing them with regular services will potentially
save San Diego City and County millions of dollars. Setting up regular
doctor's appointments instead of relying on emergency services will
cut medical costs by millions of dollars each year. I thought that was
very interesting information.
Last week I turned on the radio, same station, and heard a
conversation about the trapped miners in Chile. I know the news
stations have had lots of interesting information about the miners,
how long they will be underground and how they will survive. On
KPBS I heard family members interviewed about the letters they write
to the trapped miners and the letters they receive from the miners.
That was a good lesson in keeping morale up. The letters are a small
gesture that vill probably keep the people above and below ground
sane.
I know people who won't listen to KPBS radio because they think
it's too liberal or too left. I don't know how a human interest story
like the one about the miners can be considered too anything except
educational. They air in depth stories that make me feel like I've
learned something at a time when I could be bored'and feeling like

"Education is a journey, not a destination." In writing this, Jamie
Katner actually took a partial quote and exchanged it a bit by taking it
out of context. This is very okay because it originally had to do with SATURDAY
prison reformation. By looking up the quote I found that out and also
found out many ways the quote has been used through the years. In
this context, education is something we can experience throughout SPI"]EIER 4m 2010
our lives and learning is never something we quit doing.
