Well done Nobby.  =D> Few things brass me off more than total bullshitters. We're British. What happens in California should stay in California. I still remember the day, early 90s, where a gang of us from different schools were asked to perform yet another piece of useless TVEI bureaucracy. My response of NO surprised them into silence, then, when I was asked why my response was that I was paid to teach for four and a half days a week and half a day to do this. Consequently teaching comes first and this kind of stuff will be fitted in if deemed worthy. This was not deemed worthy as it would have absolutely no effect on the pupils' experience.

Read in the paper the other day that something was going to be introduced to Cambridge University 'for the safety of our staff, visitors and CUSTOMERS!' WTF! Someone send for Bullshit Man - Karl. Karl!

Easy, i'm In California. But we do have a certain reputation for nonsense, this being the nanny state. Here in San Francisco we are banning plastic straws but giving out needles, and then complaining about all the discarded needles (as well as the other crap on the sidewalks).

One solution at a time but then a solution to the solution - law of unintended consequences.
