Craziest thing I remember was one really well connected young guy calling me the evening of Sep 11th to tell me that it was probably the Serbs because they want revenge for the persecution of Milosevic. A guy who never contacts me, and went out of his way to pass on that as the latest greatest theory, 10 hours after the fact. It was a very strange time out here, as it seems to have been in the US as well. One American quit and went home to the US on September 12th.

What a fine example of hard-hitting, informative journalism. They never say what it is he said !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HS teacher suspended for alleged racist remarks (doesn't matter if taken out of context) Atlanta Journal- Constitution ^ \| November 18, 2005 \| AP CARROLLTON — A history teacher at Carrollton High School has been suspended for allegedly making racially insensitive comments during a civil rights lesson. Mark McCormick, 46, who is white, has been placed on administrative leave with pay pending a disciplinary tribunal hearing the week after Thanksgiving, Superintendent Tom Wilson said Thursday. One of McCormick's students said he made "racially harassing comments" during a lecture. "We've investigated the situation extensively, and we believe these statements were made," said Wilson, who would not comment on what the remarks were. "Whether they were made intentionally or not, or taken out of context, is not the issue. It was inappropriate regardless," the superintendent said.
