This "anti-vax" thread seems as logical a spot as any to park an apology that's been nagging at me:
She really was a good teacher, like I assured you when she first announced her candidacy for Board of Education. She taught my son and, as her "room mom," I was in her classroom often that year.

Randy and Michelle, I am so, so sorry for my (gross) miscalculation!
