Subject: [PHP] Student Suspended Over PHP use.


I just ran across this interesting article from awhile back. Pretty funny
http://bbspot.com/News/2000/6/php_suspend.html
Topeka, KS - High school sophomore Brett Tyson was suspended today after 
teachers learned he may be using PHP.
"A teacher overheard him say that he was using PHP, and as part of our 
Zero-Tolerance policy against drug use, he was immediately suspended. No 
questions asked," said Principal Clyde Thurlow.   "We're not quite sure what 
PHP is, but we suspect it may be a derivative of PCP, or maybe a new 
designer drug like GHB."  
Parents are frightened by the discovery of this new menace in their 
children's school, and are demanding the school do something.  "We heard 
that he found out about PHP at school on the internet.  There may even be a 
PHP web ring operating on school grounds," said irate parent Carol Blessing. 
 "School is supposed to be teaching our kids how to read and write.  Not 
about dangerous drugs like PHP."
In response to parental demands the school has reconfigured its internet 
WatchDog software to block access to all internet sites mentioning PHP.  
Officials say this should prevent any other students from falling prey like 
Brett Tyson did.  They have also stepped up locker searches and brought in 
drug sniffing dogs.
Interviews with students suggested that PHP use is wide spread around the 
school, but is particularly concentrated in the geeky nerd population.  When 
contacted by BBspot.com, Brett Tyson said, "I don't know what the hell is 
going on dude, but this suspension gives me more time for fraggin'.  Yee 
haw!"
PHP is a hypertext preprocessor, which sounds very dangerous.  It is 
believed that many users started by using Perl and moved on to the more 
powerful PHP.  For more information on how to recognize if your child may be 
using PHP please visit http://www.php.net.
