...Chealsea Tractors. Or any 4x4 monstrosity that's never taken off the road, and is most likely driven by a mother who can hardly see over the steering wheel taking her kids to school less than a mile away from home.

They are one of my pet hates when cycling/biking/driving! Especially the ones who go the whole hog and have a "little princess onboard" sticker in the rear window, and feel it is their God-given right to occupy the entire carriageway when loading/unloading children at the school gate. They have a nasty habit of pulling out and changing lanes without looking too.

I just can't imagine what our society would be like without the great minds who have developed through Universities.

Are you seriously stating that great minds, such as Sir Isaac Newton did not benefit from a University education?
