ake, how about posting something further about schools disallowing children to run on their playgrounds? Are there schools other than the Thomas Deacon Academy that plan(ed) such a thing? According to the responses to the idea that I read online, there was an outcry regarding the plan.

You imply that there are others or perhaps, even that children in Scotland are not allowed to run in their playgrounds. I still don't believe that. Surely Scotland is not that ignorant or backward. (On the other hand, you are a Scot..? *g*)

As for Jade, unless I missed something writ large, I don't recall that she had information on the phenomenon but simply agreed with you that she "wouldn't be surprised" to hear it.

Sit up, mon.
