Looks like there was a lot going on at that school in those few years. The year after the Third Wave thing (which was April 1967), they started accepting black students from a nearby district. First issue of the paper that year is all in favor of this, and then pretty much every issue afterwards has several articles about how the school is dealing with "racial problems." And Ron Jones, the teacher in the Third Wave, was co-teaching a Sensitivity Training class (in which he promised that everything would be on the level.) And he was the adviser for a student activist club that eventually got disbanded by the school.
And I wonder, what possible catastrophe came crashing down from heaven and brought this dashing stranger to tears?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
LJ is indeed borked like the Swedish Chef.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Hm. Mr Debunker mentions his referrer logs. I suspect we may get a visit from him.

Sophie Renwick's VELVET HAVEN, the first in the paranormal Annwyn Chronicles series about dark gothic shape-shifters and the kick-ass heroines who meet and mix at the Velvet Haven goth club, to Tracy Bernstein at NAL, in a nice deal, for publication in Winter 2010

So, anyone know if this Sophie Renwick person has any knowledge of what goth clubs are like, or if she's just going to make up Darque and Deviant details?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
well the day was semi-productive after the morning of phone calls and tv watching. I ordered some gifts online, went out and exchanged a gift for mac, looked for another gift at 2 stores, bought a gift at a still different store, finished getting the lights on the tree (350 ft worth) and watched a wee bit more tv.
I am a bit peeved that netflix watch on demand is not working on my iBook when it seems I meet all the requirements.
Now I think I need to for real finally get some toys listed on ebay. I cannot believe that I am getting no interest in mac's bike for sale on craigslist.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You might have to wait until spring to find a parent interested in hanging outside?

Wow. From the school newspaper site, there's an interview with Jones from after his tenure was denied. I'm surprised the debunker guy doesn't use anything from that on his website -- Jones comes across as fairly nuts. Very "Power to the People," and saying that he's not strong enough for non-violence, and has no faith in society, and he's dedicating his life to the Revolution and doesn't expect to be alive in five or ten years.
