by Jay Polmar How do we teach one another? How is it that we were taught everything that we now know? At some points in history, knowledge was elitist and even a forbidden concept. In 399 BC, Socrates explained that he was known as the wisest of all men since he understood that he knew nothing. Socrates was ultimately executed because of his unyielding questioning to the Athens population to find out how they knew what they knew. Today, we still ask Socrates questions and have yet to full
