Lance, I hope this is not too politically charged to be here but if so, pull it.
Music Lives
This program helps support music programs in public schools. A great cause in my eyes (and ears). Help if you can.

I'm not sure how this can be politically charged. Music is good right? Isn't that why we're here? I'm for any program that supports music in public schools. More potential future clients!

My thought was that it touches on the sensitive issue of what should and what should not be cut from public schools.
I say cut English. Hey we all speak gooder English anyway.

I think its been proven time and again that children who learn music (and the arts in general) read better and have better math skills. I'm sure they benefit from it much better than say smashing heads on a football field (which I too did and had a lot of fun doing).

Paul, I'm afraid now I am doing exactly what you wanted to avoid. However, I feel it is a worthy topic to discuss.

Just remember...future clients!
