Knowledge is important, you are right. Having facts at hand (or brains) is very useful. One could not do a internet search without knowledge, because one needs knowledge to ask the right questions. Having a debate however with only access to your own knowledge without backing of internet to provide facts and figures is a poor debate. Most debates suffer from poor facts and figures just because the partners only trust their own believes and prejudices. (in the old days we used to look it up in a dictionary, or ask an expert in the family)<br />So in my opinion knowledge is necessary, and the skill to use internet is very important.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
