    sorta off topic, but:

    my friend's son tells me that they're forced to watch an hour of "educational" television every morning in his elementary school. so, even at school [and disregarding pop machines], Portland kids are also being bombarded with advertising [and microwaves] when they could be reading or painting or something creative. it's ridiculous.

    yeah, well, just to ive an idea of how we got going in that direction, one of the reasons I've heard for using overhead projectors is that they're 'more like television'. Mind you, I'm fully aware that they are good for reusing transparencies as well, but it was an interesting point.
