I was attempting cite the source of the quote.

Unfortunately, I linked to the root post in the thread instead of the third post in the thread. It's the third post (of nine) that contains the passage I quoted.

Sorry for the confusion - Mark

He shouldn't have been fired
by Diana Former Forum moderator Apr 23, 2007 11:59PM PDT

The problem could have been that it is a Catholic (aka religious) school. They tend to be more rigid than secular schools. Worked with a guy once that had been fired from the local religious (Protestant) elementary school because he wife divorced him (she wasn't a Christian).

I wonder why he would think that VT would have anything to do with the stock market?
