Another homeschooler: Me. I graduated homeschool-high school a few years ago. Now I'm happily puttering along at a community college, preparing to transfer for my biology degree.
Ummm, let's see...a wide range of knowledge, the ability to think, and a high degree of self-discipline?
You seem to be assuming that home school students are somehow deficient in these areas. I guess you haven't seen the test score comparisons? You might also not have noticed that public schools routinely graduate functional illiterates.
Being a UK student, I didn't really like Tim Tebow because of the team he plays for (*cough* FLORIDA *cough*), but then I learned this fact about his education, and suddenly I felt as if I had met another brother.

Anonymous, did your link get cut off? I copied-and-pasted as far as it went, but Yahoo gave an error message suggesting that the page had expired.
