- NhanH 11y agoI'm happy to response that I'm neither 14, nor old enough to have realized the idea on my own before I came across it. >And as for the schools, they were just holding pens within this fake world. Officially the purpose of schools is to teach kids. In fact their primary purpose is to keep kids locked up in one place for a big chunk of the day so adults can get things done. And I have no problem with this: in a specialized industrial society, it would be a disaster to have kids running around loose. http://paulgraham.com/nerds.html http://paulgraham.com/nerds.html
