The whiney guy you spoke of has a website. You are right about him. He is using scare tactics on his site to try to convince homeschoolers that this is a bad law. The bottom line is that he is trying to save his business. BTW, his complaints about the new law have been completed discredited by HSLDA.
He had the gall to quote Dewitt Black of HSLDA on his paper. It was clear that he felt his approach to home schooling is superior to everyone else's. I've checked out his program. He's an elitist who demands a lot of useless stuff rather than a valuable education.
Shalom.
