I recently posted this education article. Since those managing the Public Education Ping list do not include me on their ping list, and do not often ping my posts, I am pinging you directly.

If you do not want to be contacted *please** let me know, and I will remove your name.

I surely wouldn’t wish to bother you, but I don’t want you to miss these education articles, either. Those managing the Public Education Ping list might fail to notify you due to my being the author of the thread.

I will call this ping list:

“The All Opinions Welcome Government Education Ping List” !

Since those managing the Public Education Ping list do not include me on their ping list, and do not often ping my posts, I am pinging you directly....Those managing the Public Education Ping list might fail to notify you due to my being the author of the thread.

Those of us who manage the Public Education ping list would also like you to stop posting lies about us.

If you want to have your own education ping list, we have no problem with that. However, we decide which threads to ping based on content, not on who posts the thread (note that unless you are Tammy Drennan, you are not the "author" of this one).

Obviously, we only ping to threads of which we are aware, and even though there are 4 of us, we do not monitor FR 24/7. If you'd like an article you post to be considered for a ping to the Public Education ping list, the easiest way to make that happen is to ping one of us and let us know the article exists. Since you haven't done that, I suspect that the purpose of your explanation is pure snarkiness.

The guidelines for inclusion on the public education ping list are as follows:

This list is for intellectual discussion of articles and issues related to public education (including charter schools) from the preschool to university level. Items more appropriately placed on the “Naughty Teacher” list, “Another reason to Homeschool” list, or of a general public-school-bashing nature will not be pinged.

I personally tend not to ping articles from World Nut Daily, because those articles tend to be inaccurately reported.

Again, if you'd like to have your own ping list, the four of us do not mind, but please refrain from posting lies about other FReepers.
