    Would you like to know how many times this trend in thinking comes around
in our society.  I think it's a five-year-thing... where the parents get 
worried about back to the basics stuff and then the new stuff gets bumped out.

It's sad because there's some good in the new stuff... and each school system
treats it differently with very few realizing how to integrate the new with
the old again.  

I think this is a scare tactic that I've seen before but I could be wrong.
(I sort of doubt it, though)
