bad, bad stuff. do you know any good reads on the US education system? we're in a bad state right now with things like this. our local system uses magnet schools which are on the one hand terrific (2 of my kids attend) but on the other hand drains resources from the rest of the district. I wish I knew a solution that worked outside of an effective local government.

Rumours it was a disgruntled 'customer' Just look for the guy who’s wife, son or daughter’s treatment was denied or insurance said it was not covered. That should narrow it down to 12 million people or so.

When I first saw the story, my immediate reaction was to be surprised something like this hadn’t happened sooner.
