Sorry, Karen. I would know you anywhere (especially after you gave me the blonde clue)

As I said, I have distractions today.

As to "contrary traditions," the more multicultural we become, the more this will happen, and not only with religion. Someday an Asian child might bring in a leftover dog-meat sandwich for lunch. If the kids in class happen to be reading about Dick and Jane and see Spot run, I could see "an exposure to contradictory traditions in the classroom" brewing there.

I think American classrooms should reflect American traditions. Traditions become traditions because the they are practiced by the majority.

I know you are not a supporter of the lawsuit, for your own reasons.
