Episode #21 What does it mean to be educated? - Apples and Oranges‪.‬ Optimisticality

After a brief interruption to our normal bi weekly schedule, whilst I worked on another project,  we return to "da internets" with this episode, and begin a new round of shows by asking a question:

"What exactly does it mean to be truly educated?"

I got a bit technical and philosophical in the unpicking of this question, so I hope it's all interesting and thought provoking.  Does education mean qualifications? being right? or perhaps reasoning? or is it something else? And even more oddly what does it mean to say we "know" something?
