A number of years ago Bernard Goldberg, working for HBO Sports,
did a a report about how some schools are taking the chances of
injury in gym to an absurd extreme: SKIPPING WITHOUT A ROPE! No
joke, that is no joke. I never thought absurdity of that would
be matched. We have a contender, Mercer Island School of State
of Washington has tried and failed for the moment (we hope) at
trying to ban TAG! "Too tough and potentially violent." and "We
came up with the 'hands off' idea to minimize negative physical
interactions among elementary school children during recess or
unstructured play." are actual quotes! :o ::)
