- ricardonunez 14y agoLike I read yesterday here in HN. They need to be rewarded/trained otherwise they will never learn. I'll send a letter to my representative to tell him how disappointed I'm. If a lot of people do that, they will know if they screwed up or did well. Although to be honest, I feel they will never learn.
