    Just what we need: more laws to invade privacy. So much for trusting teachers.

    I think they get messages like this all the time, which is why they think it is funny. So, satire for this specific example, but suggests an increasing level of annoyance from the …

    He is geeky, yes, but I thought his enthusiasm and excitement were both genuine and infectious.

    After SOPA (or whatever that was called), ignorance is their only defense. Or that they are smitten by Danica Patrick.
