Here is a great article from the Washington Post by Laurie David, wife of TV personality Larry David and staunch anti-global warming crusader. Basically it describes how the National Science Teachers Association (NSTA) turned down 50,000 free copies of 'An Inconvenient Truth' because they didn't want to get caught up with "special interest groups" even though they accept millions of dollars from Exxon Mobil Corp. and other oil and energy companies. So big oil, who have done everything in their power to convince people that global warming is a myth, is funding our children's education. How do you like that shit? Seems if we had a little more money in the education budget educators wouldn't have to take money from these pig-fuckers.
Anyway, I was tipped off to this article by V.T political guru Peter Freyne's excellent blog, Freyne Land.
happy weekend,

know what they say...
those who can't do, teach.
don't hate the teachers- they just do what they have to do to give the kids a quality education- but do the ends justify the means? I am no one to judge...(at least in this case...)
did you get that memo re: sarcasm?
yeah, i guess detecting sarcasm in written form from an anonymous poster is over my head. oh no tanner, your superior intellect has once again bested weak minded little 'ol me. picking anything up there, killer?;)
