Ahh, no, I'm not posting with Agent at all. I'm not even posting using a
Windows machine, so using IE is definitely out.

You can post using Agent without using a windows machine, via Wine.

If he sticks to his statement the magistrate(s) has/have been a lot
wiser than they are being given (dis)credit for.

If you feel like seeing other instances of curing bad behaviour by
rewarding it, a good book to read would be 'That Dreadful School' by
A.S.Neill. Well, it's a good all-round book in many ways other than
that.

I used to teach in a school based on the same æthos, and run by someone
who had taught in the school (Summerhill) and worshipped the ground
Neill walked on.
