    "Mr. Hartranft, a nuclear engineer who had been forced to retire early because of Parkinson’s disease, came up with what he thinks is a rigorous mathematical model to compare the school’s demanding grading system with more lenient grading in other schools. The model, he and some local school administrators say, is a bold new way to think about grades."

    Hey, I, too, need to be reminded what the real purpose of education is! "George Pappas, a senior vice president of EduCap, said that...the purpose of the [all expense paid] summit [in the Carribean] was to remind 'everybody of what the real goal of education is' and that student loans were not discussed."

    In my high school biology, chemistry, and physics labs, my safety goggles were always too fogged-up for me to see what I was doing. I don't remember learning a thing as I blindly followed the step-by-step instructions. Maybe I would have been better off blowing stuff up in a virtual chemistry lab!

    Obviously, Brownie the "kindest" cow is a closet sadist. Brownie seems kind enough, until you slight her. For example, the poor, disturbed rooster, suffering from delusions of grandeur, does not pay proper heed to Brownie. So, Brownie makes a fool out of the rooster by playing upon the rooster's noblesse oblige. Brownie does not change in the story, but her true color, turd-brown, shines through.

    Do you know a teenager who is trying to make a difference? In politics? In the community? For peace? For the environment? In a church youth group? As a boy or girl scout? If you do, please send them to TeenActivist.Org. We're starting up a site where teens can help one another become better activists.
