Tommy over at Sticks of Fire pointed out the falling standards of Florida’s education system a few weeks back.  I’m not going to rehash it or add to it (as I already did in the comments of said thread).  It’s the responses that have me a little put off.

When snark and sarcasm are employed on a serious issue, over and over again, it seems to signal indifference.  If not indifference, then powerlessness.  if not powerlessness, it’s simply ignorance or acceptance of the status-quo.
