Ain't kiddin'

All the students at Luolang Elementary School, a yellow-and-orange concrete structure off a winding mountain road in southern China, know the key rules: Do not run in the halls. Take your seat before the bell rings. Raise your hand to ask a question. And oh, yes: Salute every passing car on your way to and from school. And there's more where this came from.

Ah and in several schools in the US, biology teachers are reprimanded if they teach evolution.

BTW: In the small neighborhood where I live, all neighbors wave at passing cars! That's one of the pleasant little things that induced us to buy a house here.
