<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2843112, member: 19463&quot;]Everything is OK as long as we use our books and don&#039;t worship them.&nbsp; Martin has shown us that there is a bit of work needed to make RIC V user friendly.&nbsp; Lets be careful not to throw out the baby with the bathwater even though RIC V seems to have been the last baby using that particular tubful and may not be as pristine as we might like.&nbsp; The question worthy of consideration is whether there will ever be a new edition updating RIC V part 2.&nbsp; I do not know if anyone is even working on it so I know it will not come in my lifetime but the relative costs of an ink on paper version compared to a digital only one is very much a factor.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Quite a few teachers tell their students not to trust information found online.&nbsp; Others say only believe what you read on sites with .edu or .gov addresses.&nbsp; Almost 20 years ago I received a note from a student who had been marked down on a paper he wrote using my website as a source.&nbsp; He wanted to know if I could provide a book reference for what I said so he could fight for a better grade.&nbsp; Today I hope he is a teacher and doing a better job teaching skills of using the <i>evil</i> Internet and, particularly, that we need to use the same skills of reading critically on paper as well as on screens.&nbsp; Being in a book does not make something true.&nbsp; If my test papers from school in the 1950&#039;s were all regraded with answers considered correct today my scores would have qualified me for a lobotomy rather than a scholarship.&nbsp; Read carefully.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
