First thing I noticed...


For quotes they went ``and then "

ie ``They're not just reports.''

Whats up with that?

I see this all the time, especially in newsgroups. I'm not exactly sure where it comes from, but some content systems publish the quotes like that...

Pretty good job...I wonder if he had knowledge of the programs and hardware used by the school beforehand. That'll make the job a lot easier.

Hmm...I'm a little confused.

Though it is quite cool, is that allowing a child to do something quite illegal?
