I have written about Marvin Olasky, the editor of World Magazine before. Well, a few weeks ago, Kelly sent him an email telling him how much we enjoy reading his articles and little bit herself and her plans. Not only did he take the time to write a very nice personal email back to her, World published part of her letter in the Letters to the Editor section of their magazine. This is the second time Kelly has gotten a letter published there. We were all quite excited. Here it is in all its glory.

We suffered a great loss in our ongoing battle with the cats. Kiwi and Rubix just do not seem to have the level of respect for cleanliness and decorum that Lorena demands. Lorena put a brand new table covering on our table for the first time last night. Rubix felt like she needed to try it out.
Rubix defies Lorena
Ken, thanks for the heads-up on the WorldMagBlog/Real Education article and discussion. Good discussions on that thread.
Blessings, -Mark
Yeah, Mark. I thought of you when I read that. It spot on with what you mentioned in a previous comment about how many should really not be going to college.
OK, I added my comment to the WorldMag article, with a URL to an article I wrote last year. The article is on the Puritans and their educational “efficiency”. I still don’t think schools are a good idea for children under agre 16 or so, but the Puritans set the benchmark any school should be measured by.
Great Mark. I will go check it out.
