“A little learning is a dangerous thing” — A. Pope
+
=
People who are afraid of new ideas are apt to quote that much abused line:
“A little knowledge is a dangerous thing.”
Of course they quote it wrongly.
The poet was not so foolish as to have said such a thing. What he said was,
“A little learning is a dangerous thing”; which is quite another matter.

________
The cause finding rate is down,
which is compatible with the dumping of cases.
Without careful review of the cases,
we cannot make a finding of discrimination.

__________
As we all know, the goal is to meet the numbers.
Cases are closed even though questions remain
whether there was discrimination.
If it is the end of the quarter, or the end of the fiscal year,
EEOC offices dump cases.
There is no other way to describe what happens
