[quote:Eagle # 1 603736:MV81NDU3NDFfMTEwMjI5NjdfNkMwREZGNUI=] Quite similar to teaching nuclear power, but you CAN'T go into how to survive nuclear war. They would rather have the children DEAD than know the facts about radiation, etc. Was teaching same to eight grade class when ONE childs father, a doctor, must have been embarassed that his child knew more/could ask him questions he couldn't answer ( they ALL have illusions of being Gods ), so from ONE call, I was told to stop this teaching, when I had been doing it for years and was commended on it by my department head. I was even told to stop using a survey meter, because " I might frighten the children ". Few know that all major jobs in the school systems are CONTROLED by the local politicans/school board ( would be politicans ). Eagle [/quote]

LAND 'O LAKES, Fla. -- A substitute teacher in Pasco County has lost his job after being accused of wizardry.
Teacher Jim Piculas does a magic trick where a toothpick disappears and then reappears.
Piculas recently did the 30-second trick in front of a classroom at Rushe Middle School in Land 'O Lakes.
Piculas said he then got a call from the supervisor of teachers, saying he'd been accused of wizardry.
"I get a call the middle of the day from head of supervisor of substitute teachers. He says, 'Jim, we have a huge issue, you can't take any more assignments you need to come in right away,'" he said.
Piculas said he did not know f any other accusations that would have led to the action.
The teacher said he is concerned that the incident may prevent him from getting future jobs.
