Thanks to Papa Strange

for stating some classroom rules so clearly. Why don't students just presume these things?

Of course, he's forgotten one of the most important rules: don't tick off Mama Strange or else she'll go home and complain to Papa Strange about it. He has been known to offer kind commiseration when deserved, so watch out.

One of these days, I'll actually take him up on his offer to appear as a guest lecturer on exactly this subject.
