I wish that rule was enforced by everyone outside of this site too. Same goes for people bringing up Obama. People derail so many discussions, debates (and so on) by bringing up other names that are rarely related to the matter. The "but but this person did this and that" defense rarely works.

Personally, I happen to like Rule 19. :)

Forget who our education secretary is, the main problem with our schools is that the ones down here give way too many easy A's. College-bound students end up seriously unprepared. My original major after graduating from high school was computer science, but the lack of preparation on my school district's part, combined with two a**hole professors my first semester of college caused me to change majors. I feel I have been cheated out of some very high-tech, very high paying opportunities.
