>>> Yeah, isn't that stuff the biggest waste of time? Why on earth is it important to learn all the capitals of the states? I know I had to learn it (of course, I can't remember most of them anymore). I'm pretty sure most people don't remember them either. Unbelievable waste of time.

HeHe. It's funny, in High school I felt the same way, but then I got a job. About a year ago I had to track down the requirements for architectural licensing in about 20 states. Guess who I had to call, the state capital. As I was looking on a map to find the capitals, I swear I could hear my geography teacher faintly laughing.
