Mr. Jones insults teachers heavily here. He writes like many who profit from and push technology. Note his misogynistic use of "handmaiden" in his fitting conclusion.

CHARLESTOWN, Ind. - A southern Indiana city plans to provide laptop computers to all 1,200 high school and middle school students in the community.

Greater Clark County schools interim superintendent Travis Haire says the district is still working of financing to lease the laptops, which could cost about $300,000 over four years. In addition to the free laptops, the city about 15 miles northeast of Louisville, Ky., plans to install a number of wireless hot spots and a community computer lab.
