Welcome to EvC Brian,
I commend your attempts to get your class to "think outside the classroom", so to speak. I was lucky, in my early education, to have teachers like yourself, who instilled a love of learning for learning's sake. I have attempted to raise my children with this same love. I have applauded any of their teachers that told them that while learning the book might be necessary, going beyond the textbook and finding out for yourself is also necessary and worthwhile.
I won't state here the reasons or evidence that lead me to connect to one side or the other, (it's not my place in my administrative role, though my alter-ego might be more outspoken,) but I will post some links that seem to offer the most insight into both sides of the issue.

Again, welcome to EvC and feel free to jump into any thread with questions and/or opinions, or start a new thread in any of our forums. I think that you'll find most topics have at least been touched upon in our discussions. Some have been beaten to death .
At the top of the page is a navigation bar, and under "Forums Nav" is a search tool for the forum. Above this bar and to the right is a non-discussion area search.
