[Slightly OT?] Why It's Hard to Explain Rev

[Dan Shafer]

Tough one, Marty, because there are so many free languages out there  
that educational administrators' first knee-jerk reaction (as Andre  
says in his reply) is to look to cost. But if you can get them past  
that point then I imagine Judy Perry will have some compelling  
educational arguments to bolster such a position.
