I was talking education with a student’s father last Friday. He is originally from Koto, India and sent me an article about India’s Cram Schools which have incredibly increased his hometown’s population.
Students drop out of high school and move out in order to attend a 2-year cram school to prepare for the entrance exam to one of a few Indian Institutes of Technology. These IITs are renowned, as you can imagine.

You should definitely give radiohead a listen. They have this one great song where the music is like beep boob bap ding dong chupa choops, and then Thom Yorke (remember, he’s the singer) goes “reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee” for 7 minutes. But what you REALLY need to hear is the song where it’s all like beep beep zip twinkle and Thom yorke is like “eeeeeeeeeeeee” and then “eeeee, eeeeeeeeee” for the entire song. You’d love it.
-Dan NocellaThe Scrabbled is a group of people blogging about and linking to all manner of things. Usually we argue and make fun of each other. Everybody knows everybody through somebody so there are no strangers here. Most of us have even met in real life! If you happen to personally know someone here and would like to start arguing with and/or making fun of someone, shoot John an email and ask to sign up. Otherwise, you're just going to have to read in relative silence. Sorry.
