WSJ 27-28 October 2007, p. A1

So is this where public science education has brought us? The Wall Street Journal discussed two children who were struck by lightning while inside playing video games. What part of lightning and electronics were these poor souls not taught? Obviously there are simply not enough qualified science teachers to give our youth the basics of a science education so that they can figure this out for themselves. And even more unfortunate, I am certain none of them are reading the Wall Street Journal, if they are reading anything at all.
