Ahhh...a return to the days of going to the bar for watching and talking about sports and politics.

Thank you, that was a nice cursory examination of expectations generated by different consumer groups.

Or worse, we'll start driving like...Europeans!!!

Well then, if this is your public school policy I suggest that in the financial interests of your school, you should probably consult with a lawyer. The board of education likely doesn't have the authority to regulate the activities of children off school grounds, especially if their defense is a single party non-contractual statement. It would be like the city council passing a resolution that stated that any adult living in the city could be fined for using harsh language on the internet, it simply is beyond the scope of their granted power. In all likelihood your school district is open to a similar lawsuit by the ACLU, and as a school council representative it is your duty to try and protect your school from such liability.

You are teaching children that the results are justification for the methods. Not sure if you intend for that lesson to get across, but that's the lesson I'm seeing in your words.

Though the law isn't about interlock devices, I figured I'd point out that the installation of a car interlock device lowers your insurance premiums enough that it pays for itself within a year. Then you get to enjoy cheaper premiums.

The savings on your insurance due to having a breathalyzer installed (insurance companies like this, it reduces risk) should more than cover the cost of the breathalyzer.

When I play video games, I tend to do so while watching TV and surfing the web, and often reading a comic book on my reader all at once. Often I do various combinations of these things for hours on end. Concentration? Yeah, maybe I need to concentrate for a minute at a time but I would hardly say that "all video games require a level of focal acuity that people who truly suffer from ADD/ADHD do not possess." Hell, I don't even find MOST video games to require that much concentration. Anecdotal evidence

Here's a tad bit more info:

Well yes, but in the time of Thomas Paine you could publicly challenge to a duel and kill someone who made libelous statements that infringed upon your honor.

Are you suggesting that we bring back dueling to settle matters of character defamation?

Sounds like you'd enjoy the depiction of Mario in:

And the Stanford prison experiment was nothing like actual prison, but somehow people were still psychologically effected in the same way.

Did they give you a flight in their giant Golden Condor? 'Cause that's the test of a true Mayan, I learned it on TV.

Just making a joke because Dilbert's garbage man is the smartest person he knows, super genius and all that.

Didn't realize I was taking a swing at anyone.

You remind me of the Satyr from Aesop's Fable:

A man and a satyr once poured out libations together in token of a bond of alliance being formed between them. One very cold wintry day, as they talked together, the man put his fingers to his mouth and blew on them. On the satyr inquiring the reason of this, he told him that he did it to warm his hands, they were so cold. Later on in the day they sat down to eat, the food prepared being quite scalding. The man raised one of the dishes a little towards his mouth and blew in it. On the satyr again inquiring the reason of this, he said that he did it to cool the meat, it was so hot.
"I can no longer consider you as a friend," said the Satyr, "a fellow who with the same breath blows hot and cold."

Because indeed, how can anything cause both floods and droughts?
