Hello

I read your RSS avidly for the past few months.

This is not so long a time so forgive me if this was already covered,
but you may find this to be a story you'd want to cover especially
since it interacts at a local level, without both the heavy
bureaucracies/hierarchies of government and business as well as the
corresponding "heirarchies" of formal education.
