Gov. Closes Schools

Ga. Governor Perdue has cancelled state schools for fear of a pending energy crisis. Schools are closed Monday & Tuesday in anticipation of hurricane Rita wrecking havoc with gas availability.

Weird.

**update**

Apparently, this is an attempt to save on the consumption of deisel fuel by school buses.

The two day 'early snow-day' is an inconvenience for working parents like me, but at least I've got two days to get my stuff arranged.
