I first used "ROTE" as a pejorative; and to expand, 'rote' (the word) is not in and of itself unhelpful. As JD-EE eloquently puts it, 'the meatware had a software glitch'.

In America, 'rote learning' is seen as dispassionate, and insensate. Unfortunately, in a cultural setting, a word frequently conjurs all manner of misunderstanding, here, what confuses is the unsaid.

The "clipped" sense of 'rote' means more or less, "Instead of using your thinker".

Common usage is, well, common.

Rote.

In this misunderstanding here, perhaps an opportunity to close the consensus gap.

ROTE is 'bitchin'. ROTE is 'sick'. ROTE is 'memory items', for purposes here?

Language, so boring w/o it. 'Fly'.


gums. that is it, in suede. It is the 'Between' SOPS, and (UAS Drill), and Sully's test flight (w/o the brief), that the solution lies.

It is a no-man's land, a Maginot Line of suspicion, ignorance, and Pride, with globs of ego in there as well.

Take one of our engineer friends for a hop in your family model, and see if they grok what it can be like, flying with one's hair on fire.

Time is GOD's way of making certain everything does not happen at once.

'Transition' is what we do, or DIE. "I have the Controls' hmmm.......

really? because........
