On the other hand, I serve as a living UNIX* manual for a group of people who were educated before these "progressive" education systems became fashionable (and after a year of this, either they've grown tired of my screaming "READ THE MANUAL," or just maybe they've caught on), so maybe there isn't much net change. Or perhaps the change is restricted to the other "worthless" information carried around. I don't know how to make a comparison involving two people with vastly different "real world" experience.
