  That's why it's called 'training' and not 'education'.  Education is
  something we only need to learn once and we 'know' it, thus we can give
  the right answer when quiried.  Training is a different animal.  One
  must respond without think, or at least the thoughts must be very
  simple....no calculating, figuring or moving your hand imitating the
  airplane to try to remember which way to push the rudder in an upset
  condition.
  
  Athletes train constantly.  The education of how to catch a pass only
  takes a few minutes, the training to catch a pass thrown like a bullet
  with a cornerback hanging on you and 100,000 people screaming is the
  same exercise, but with different circumstances.  Same as those winky
  little upset conditions that the IFR check ride guy has you show
  recovery from is a whole lot different then being upset in turbulent
  IMC.  Education precedes training, but only training will bring home the
  bacon---whether that training is in a simulator, with a good instructor
  or hours of mentally visualizing it.  In short, knowing the right thing
  to do doesn't count for much, being able to do the right thing is
  everything.
