Matt--care to discuss the differences between a Chinese math test and an English math test?
And Scott--Just wondering if you think that the media is actually doing the responsible thing by not giving these punks idolic (insert appropriate word of choice) airplay? Or do they think that this story, which pales in comparison to others, is less of a money-maker? Have I mentioned that I've lost all respect for the mainstream media?
Our 10 year anniversary is coming up pretty soon...so I'm wondering just how crazy to make it. The three of us travel quite well, and little dada really doesn't know any of her grandparents worth a damn--so I don't feel comfortable with that long-term (child care) option. Thoughts? Is 10 years a milestone worth making an issue of, or can we just go along--business as usual?

Well, I'll tell you one big difference...
Number of American students who asked "When am I ever gonna have to use this?!?" when faced with their test question: hundreds of thousands
Number of Chinese students who asked the same question upon encountering their test question: zero
