Can't let the Trib get away wth their knee-jerk rationale for more charters, as epitomized by today's editorial::

"We do need more charters, as those 13,000 kids in line will attest".

For a corporation that demands and extols "data-driven" management, this loosy-goosy "accountabiltiy" measure looks pretty silly.

Especially given the fact that "real" data -- you know, the data that's used to close schools and flunk kids? -- shows charters not doing very well.
