Dear professor Bush,

Perhaps we should take this to emails, and discuss dismissiveness,
dismissing based on one's perceptions, the acceptability of dismissing when
dismissed,
etc.

And, yes, I am also a teacher, so I stand qualified to dismiss us as a
breed. Our society lacks value for teachers. Even an ill-informed plumber
has
greater income. Sam had a few things to say about plumbers as well. Similar
to
those truisms he offered about attorneys, I might add. So, was he
dismissive?
You bet!
