Cross roads

It's amazing the number of people who assume that academia is the only home of intellectuality.

The intellectual aspect was way down the list of things I enjoyed about university.

I think you took my tongue-in-cheek "anti-intellectual" remark a bit too seriously. There are obviously intellectuals in a wide variety of areas.

And it's too bad you didn't find university intellectually stimulating. Trust me when I say that it can be. I found it terrific (although more so in North America than the UK).
