Obligatory Educational Blogs

This past Friday Smirk and I talked a bit about kids and education and we're
both in agreement that the educational system today is [DELETED-fubar-
DELETED] less than optimal. I found that I don't read these educational blogs
all that often, not because they're poorly written, but because of the sheer
insanity they document in our educational system today.

I was reminded of this today because flutterby.com [5] linked to an article
about parents extorting school districts to pay for private education [6]
(this article touches off several buttons of mine that I'd rather not get
into, least my head a splode [7]).

Can't we just torch the educational system now? Please?
