If there are some people that you feel comfortable discussing the issue with off-list, I would encourage you to do so, but to air something like that in public is probably not wise. I am sure that we are all feeling the pressure of exams, reports, end of semester etc and we could say things we later regret. (I'm really good at that.)</div><div>I can see you have some interesting issues to deal with atm, but it is Friday and maybe a couple of days of chill time may help.</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers mate</div><div>Cameron</div><div><br></div><div><br><div><div>On 17/06/2011, at 8:19 PM, Townsley, Andrew A wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-size: medium; "><div ocsi="0" fpstyle="1"><div style="direction: ltr; font-family: Tahoma; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 10pt; ">On another matter I would like to air for comment.<br>In teaching my Yr12 class.
