I received this today. This is what we are up against! It's not ok to read but it is ok to hate math!

>Math teachers flunk Buffett tune
>
>By Ann Oldenburg
>
>The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics is not happy about
>Jimmy Buffett's new song, Math Suks, found on his
>just-released Beach House on the Moon album.
>
>"It's a very, very negative song," Michigan State University
>professor and council president Glenda Lappan says. "It ends
>with 13 'math sucks' in a row."
>
>Adds Lappan: "This is a great disappointment. I'm a serious Jimmy
>Buffett fan. I have tapes in my car."
>
>The Reston, Va.-based council issued a statement condemning the
>tune, saying: "In a world dominated by technology and computer-driven
>devices, today's students need to be inspired more than ever to
>learn and understand mathematics."
>
>Lappan says, "In our culture, we tend to look for excuses for
>why it's OK not to apply ourselves in learning mathematics."
>
>In 1992, the council and other groups protested a talking teen
>Barbie that uttered the phrase "Math class is tough," prompting
>Mattel to offer offended buyers a mute one in exchange.
>
>What does the council expect Buffett to do?
>
>It will ask him that, "as a recording artist and icon, he say
>some things that would put a more positive spin on mathematics
>for kids," Lappan says. The council is on another mission, she
>says, "to warn the world that no, it's not funny. This is very
>serious."
>
>Buffett was not immediately available to comment.
>
>GRAPHIC: Buffett: His 'Math Suks' lacks a 'positive spin,' teachers say.

>If necessity is the mother of invention
