Inbox Irony

These two e-mails arrived in my inbox two and a half hours apart from each other. Their line-up on my screen was too good to pass up.

As you might have guessed, the first message is from an organization (Downsize DC) that is trying to improve the united States' federal government. The second is from a reporting magazine (Governing) that tells what federal and state governments are up to.

How do those look side-by-side? We need people to start acting smarter. Those kids are the ones who are going to be in state and federal offices in a few years.

By the way, this post is not a campaign for better public schools. It is a campaign for personal learning.
