Jousting with the Lancet: Pajamas Media Interviews Professor Gilbert Burnham
Doug’s comments above reveal a startling lack of information about what ‘No Child Left Behind’ actually involves. It was and is a grand vision but it needs work.
I posted earlier about the tons of depleted uranium that the US dropped in Iraq — the very stuff we are trying to keep out of the hands of terrorists who might build a dirty bomb with it — and the resulting horrific cancers there. We should ALL be concerned about this, if only because radioactive material can travel in the air, and I doubt anyone posting on this site wants to breathe it, to absorb it into their cells. You can google “depleted uranium” and “Iraq” and come up with any number of links for more information but here is one:

Even if you are a die-hard supporter of the Iraq War, you should know about this stuff, and maybe even act on what you know.
