I do wonder who visits this site?

Here, I'll make it easy... This is me:

My family Teaching at a Leadership Retreat

Now, who are you?

It's Liz from I Speak of Dreams. Hmmn I tried to post links and then just plain html &it didn't work.

What do you think of the Julie Amero case?

Sorry about the linking issues Liz!
This is Liz' site: Liz Ditz' blog "I Speak of Dreams" (worth a visit!)
...and I think she was referring to this when referencing Julie Amero.
Our district tracks links to 'bad' sites (I think it is easy for them to locate which computers/users, at what time, and for how long), and the Computer Teacher at our school has students go to a site they pretend is bad, then they practice closing the page quickly.
I don't know much about the case other than reading the article linked above. I would like to think it was a mistake, but it sounds doubtful. Will teachers and students make mistakes and go to porn/hate/abusive sites, yes of course. Should we tolerate this happening intentionally be either teachers or students, no of course not!
