Renewed Perspective
Note to my readers: Just in case you wondered why there has been a pause in posts on this blog I wanted my readers to know that I took a break from blogging to travel out West. I traveled to Yosemite and other great sites and enjoyed this and other wonderful natural wonders in the western part of our country. I believe that an appreciation of the lasting beauty of nature is a great way to remind us that the puny actions of man are often not very important in in the grand scheme of history.
Meanwhile I am pleased to refer my readers to several prolific education and political writers who have done a great job in the last few weeks of chronicling the recent developments in Governor Jindals' erratic and poorly planned education reform program. I particularly want to refer my readers to the new blog by Diane Ravitch. Dr Ravitch has produced several revealing posts in the last few weeks exposing the many flaws in the Jindal program which will damage public education in Louisiana. I hope my readers will go to her blog and take the time to get the perspective of one of the few writers who truly understands the critical issues in education and who is willing to tell the truth to all who are willing to listen.
In addition, a very experienced local political writer, Tom Aswell has also written much recently in his blog
