Re: America the myth

I will put forth as case and point that I have been around the country: California, Oregon, New Jersey, and Texas. In each and everyone with the exception of individual teachers I got a lot of guff, often to the point of punishing me for my "insolence", from each and every school. In Texas, I had to worry about being slapped with a ruler or worse. Here in Chico out of the approximately hundred or so times that I was suspended from school, choosing to refuse to salute and pledge was one of the major contributors. I believe it would be about three to five times per school. I've gone to Park View, Rosedale, Citrus, and Hooker Oak Elementary, so about 12-20 times total. It would be higher but the students gave me more guff than the teachers about my beliefs, so I rarely pushed the issue.

Of course, the last Elementary School I attended was circa 1998.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
