Not pessimistic, just recalling something I saw on the evening news a few months back that the Texas school system, being the largest buyer of textbooks in the US, largely determines what goes into textbooks. They were thinking about revising something or other in a social studies book, which will ripple out as “fact” with no review. That’s not exactly the way I was taught that this country works :-S
On a more positive note, can anybody link me to a place that sells or makes those cool touchscreen monitors? I’ve wanted one of those ever since I saw Iron Man!
