"Some of you are quite unrealistic".

Epiphany:
Reality is created by people. The great Chairman Mao of China created a reality that college admission was controlled by workers and peasants in the 1970's. They selected college students from farmers, factory workers and janitors. The result, of course, was a disaster. I am sure that a lot people on this board may think that is ridiculous, but that was the reality in China, some 35 years ago. Do you want to select students the same way as companies select employee or like a election by popular votes? That would be very interesting.
