What I am wondering is why everyone wants to set these power levels
low to
avoid testing on questions about SAFETY!

Here is an answer that seems to fit the equation, Steve:

I have noted that many people that are in favor of removing Element 1
from the tests are also in favor of this removal of safety questions, or
whatever gets those tests down to an elementary school level. This is
despite protestations from some that they would NEVER support reductions
like that. My disappointment is immense that I trusted them and that
they were inaccurate in their dealings with me. Whatever, I'm sure that
means nothing to them.

Drawing from that experience, I can safely conclude that they are
willing to chip away at any part of the test that they can, and that no
level of simplicity is too simple for them.

And they have no intention of stopping there.


D'Zat work?

Uhhhh....Yep!

We're talking about requiring some knowledge that might prevent the
person
from hurting himself or others. Why are we so anxious to avoid them..?!?!

Knowledge is BAD!

BAD knowledge! BAD!
