The reason I ask if you wrote it, I was reding it when my 13 yr old son came in the door from shool, he was telling me he had to do a social studies project and had to pick a topic, we both read the scenario and he said "do you think I could use this scenario as my topic' ? so i thought id ask.
Yes i wrote it and have been telling people this since 2006. Knock it out, if he wants more info or evidence, pm me and Ill talk to you.
