Apparently, this guy spends a lot of time writing emails. The exchange between his kid's teacher and the blogger - following the banning of said kid from using school computers because he brought a flash drive from home - is particularly illuminating:
Dear Maggie,
Yes, I agree. Education and access to the tools necessary for such should always come secondary to discipline. When I was young, discipline was an accepted part of each school day. Once, when I coloured outside the lines, I was forced to stand in the playground with a sign around my neck that read 'non-conformist' while the other children pelted me with rubble from the recently torched school library.
Conformity, after all is essential.
