Silly ideas are only seen as silly in the eyes of the beholder. All ideas come from thought processes. If Dean or any of the rest of us only think within the box, nothing will ever change or get accomplished. I am not saying that SilenceNoMore doesn't think outside of the box (actually I'm sure that he/she must), but that he/she does not always agree with others that think outside of the box.

I have said to students "what are you thinking about?" when they are trying to solve a problem and when I look back, I realize I was the one that hadn't opened my eyes. Look around, keep an open mind and see what new things that we can experience. This is FIRST.
