From: "Dave Ings"
I suggest (if you haven't already) you read the original article rather
than its echo. The situation is more interesting and more nuanced than the
referenced text would suggest. When reading the article I actually thought
it was illustrative of the redemptive powers of education and overall quite
inspiring.
