(I get the joke but will now ignore it) Of related interest: The last round of "people get outraged at The New Math because they don't understand what's being taught" involved "subitizing" (which I hadn't heard of before) and the visual tools used to teach it to young children.

I think the New Math is not remotely as terrible as the red tribe trads get worked up at most of the time, when I bother to understand it, it boils down to ... tricks that I invented / discovered myself that said, I remain unconvinced that (a) most kids are well server by it
