I am a product of the Kansas Education system and I'll tell you now that they haven't been teaching Evolution in schools anyway, now they have just made it official. When we were supposed to be learning about evolution they had a priest come in and talk about noah's ark and how the dinosaurs couldn't surrive on it, and that is why they all died. (I had to leave the class because I was laughing so hard.)
Another thing about my school, they had a sexual education class, but what we had to do was memorize all the bones in the human body. They ripped all the pages out of our textbooks that contained the word "sex"!
Perhaps the reason that Micrsoft errors are not so shallow is that Microsoft programmers don't even get to see the whole source code, they only work on assigned parts, and never get to see how they interact with other parts of the program or OS. Whereas the Open Source programmers can view the whole source code and see "oh my code may conflict with this part, I had better fix it".
I don't understand why this lady chose to let her son watch the show if she believed it to be so violent. She is one of the people of this world that ignore their children and let the television babysit them, then later wonder why their kids are so messed up. If she had watched the show just once she would see the disclaimer in the beginning that the show isn't fit to be viewed by anyone.
I realize that parents aren't always home, so if they want to prevent children from watching these shows they should go out and buy a tv with the new V-Chips and block out unwanted programming. All the information about V-Chips can be found here or a parent could call toll-free at 1-877-2 VCHIP-TV for more information.
My college requires us to take a computer ethics class from the ethics department before we get our degree. Is there many other colleges out there with this same policy?

My Advanced unix professor once joked that the difference between a bug and a feature is documentation.
It might be easier for microsoft to document the bugs.

This article brings the posibility of an zero-gravity sex chamber. The last frontier in sexual relations.
Ok, it's time to get on my soapbox.
