[Wikipedia-l] A Three Way Split

As a former primary teacher and recovered dyslexic, I'm not at all
surprised that 40% of the population are only up to a 5th grade level
(if that). 

I'm a fluent adult, and there are some articles in the wikipedia that
leave me going 'huh?!' because they're too complex and convoluted... I
think a really good writer who knows what they're talking about can make
complicated information seem simple, but a poor writer or someone overly
involved in the subject can make the simple seem incredibly complex
because they assume that everyone else has a certain level of
understanding that they don't actually have.

that will truly appreciate it in all its facets' - 
and so He made the kitten.
