Alright, I want to make a few comments before I provide some suggestions.
1. I must say that the respect I have for Keith has definitely been enhanced by his use of the blog. It takes a lot of courage to stand up for what you believe in and to express that in spite of what your peers are saying or doing. I think that in many ways Keith is one of the only people consistently sharing thoughtful and honest responses. I would challenge many of you who have commented that you want the conversation to change to change it and not just by posting a three line comment about what you want to talk about, but actually making some substantial thoughtful comments on a different topic of interest to you and the people on the blog.
2. Having said that I am as of now imposing a permenent and enternal ban on the topic of evolution. We have not only beaten a dead horse here, but we have dragged it half way to Lake Zurich and then back again.
Anyway, possible topic options at this point:
A. Lawrence King... you can read more about him at the link here. He was 15 and in 8th grade when, February 12th, his classmate brought a gun to school and shot him in the head for being gay. http://www.rememberinglawrence.org/
B. The social norms posters around school... so 82% of kids don't smoke... but that means 18% do... why? What do you think the draw is? How can we encourage this number to go down?
