You're right. I get hit with the "you don't know which year" phrases. But when I ask further probing questions as to why I should know those things, I get hit with the "well I learned this in X year of school." and they fail to explain the importance. People often equate memorization with being intelligent and real world examples point to this absolutely not being the case.

I oddly find technical documentation of things and informational pieces to be far more interesting.

And might I add, well put!
