So, you're saying "It's just a coincidence".
You'll find that folks online will tend to discuss whatever they want to discuss...and while Socrates (the original one) preferred to <b>pose</b> questions rather than answering them, we tend to be a little more bidirectional around here. Don't confuse "starting a thread" with "being in the driver's seat".
My best tip on "Virtual/lifelong/peak learning" is: "learn how to surf the Web".
People have dreamed of such a resource for ages ; now it's here on your doorstep at very low cost. Intelligent use of a search engine will teach you more about most subjects than almost anything else you can do in a classroom/office setting.
