I remember in the spring of 1971, a hundred thousand people converged on the Pentagon in June of 1971. They threw blood; I guess it was goat's blood or something, on the steps to the Pentagon.

I think private school is much better at customer service and making the parents feel better, especially in Los Angeles.
