Taking the Public Out of Public Schools

I'm not sure what's funnier, the fact that the Pittsburgh Public Schools are going to drop the word "Public" in order to "brighten and strengthen the district's image,"or these comments about the fact over at Lucianne.com.* My personal favorites are "Like rearranging the Titanic's deck chairs" and "In that vein, maybe if they dropped the word 'school' it might help their image too."
