I think the real problem is that nobody ever read 'War and Peace' unless they were forced to do so by an oppressive school system that also made us read 'Jane Eyre' and Shakespeare's works when we were 10 years too young to appreciate them! At age 12, children should be sent to work in the mines and on factory assembly lines until they are 21. THEN let them go back to school. There will be no disciplinary problems, students will be happy to study (hey, it beats standing at a punch press or a hard rock drill 10 hours a day) and they can actually enjoy reading 'Great Expectation!.'

Question:
Gene Shoemaker become the first person to have 'this' done. What was it that gives him this credit?
