Heathrow Terminal 5: Electricity-free no-laptop zone?

January 19, 2008 9:19am

Same thing at the Dallas airport. The very few ones available (and I ran through almost half the airport in search off one) are disabled. Only restaurants have them. I ended up begging a waitress to let me charge my phone, so I could call a hotel. I was stranded during the floods last Spring.

French art from 1910 depicting the year 2000

I looked at the lithograph showing a school in the year 2000. It shows children hooked to electrodes while the teacher feeds textbooks into a grinder powered by a hand crank moved by a student. Ironically, this is exactly what our reading instruction has turned into, with the passage of No Child Left Behind.
