This is sort of off topic, but...there was some buzz here in Iowa recently about starting the school year in the middle of August. The schools let out early the whole first week because temperatures were in the 90s (F) and only 20% of the schools have air conditioning. It really made me wonder if our society really cares about our kids?

[Thanks for a nice story of hope, plep.]

Very cool project, although the first thing I thought when I read the name was "Chicago?" -- 312 is the area code for downtown Chi-town.

Excellent plep, nice post, nice project.

It made me recall this prior thread posted by pedantic: "I took the picture of Kelly's butt, I saw she was naked and I took it."
