Default Tragedy

Forget the public, my school system won't even let me MENTION the YE
program. I had arranged YE flights for 56 students in our high school
aerospace program when the teacher of that program was informed that he
was NOT going to take those kids flying and if he did and if anything
happened they would hang him out to dry, personally!


That's outrageous.

Have you been able to get to the bottom of this travesty of
"education", Margy?

The decision-maker at the school in question probably taught probability
and statistics.

That's not a glowing endorsement of Margy's educational system.

Hey, I'm in the DC area. We've got TONS of lawyers so we can't do
anything. As Scott Crossfield put it "we are protecting our kids so
well they can't do anything" (more or less his words). We live and die
by conservative risk management. I even got caught doping model
airplanes in my classroom on a SATURDAY morning. Damn, I thought I'd
never get caught on a Saturday!! I snuck it though on a purchase order,
oh well.
