I finally got around to reading that artical and I must say that I am disturbed. Even more disturbing to me is the fact it is actually overseen by an oranization, called WWASP, that is devoted to this kind of rather extreme action. I did a couple fo Google searches on WWASP (including a couple crossreferencing the LDS (Latter Day Saint/Mormon) Church because both are based in Utah; no bones there) and found that most of the stuff I found was quite negative in nature.

A further thought that disturbs me is the fact that only wealthy families would be able to send their children off to a schools such as these. Parents who would go to lengths such as these strike me as A) incredible ignorant or B) severe anal-retentive control freaks. For God's mercy, people! If you're gonna bother spending money then why don't ya just send 'em into a military academy? They'd probably turn out better and wind up serving the country too, dammit!

I'd rather be sent into a military academy than Tranquility Bay. I might actually learn something a bit more useful rather than what I'd learn in my normal studies!
