HI KEN
Note there's a "disable html" checkbox in the list between the text box where you type your message and the buttons at the bottom.
Here's a fairly good tutorial on html.

Forget about the advanced CGI and forms stuff. You won't need it for what you're doing, but you'll know where to find it if you ever do. Just check out chapters 3 - 7.
Also, you can always hit the edit button on other people's posts to crib from their posts. You won't be able to save the message unless it's yours. But you can peek and it's considered more than polite conduct in most of Cyberia.
"A multitude of laws in a country is like a great number of physicians, a sign of weakness and malady." --Voltaire, philosopher (1694-1778)

I personally think that elan might be a front for drug-running, money laudering, or racketteering. Probably all three. That might be why they are so damn cheap; if we were on medications, they'd always switch to generics, we had cheap razors and shampoo, the list goes on. I remember one girl saying that if this place was so expensive, where does all the money go? Why were we living on the cheap, with the house in disrepair and furniture that you could cut yourself on while Claire and Tania drove Jaguars, a car that my parents could not afford, and my family is by no means poor. There were repeated "mistakes" in accounting, and with other families besides mine, and of course the errors were always in THEIR favor. They tried to keep me longer so that they could make more money when I was scheduled to start college at a very good school, on the pretext that I -probably one of the most anti-Elan people of all times- was to go through "re-entry." They always encourage parents to disown their children if they sign out, and since many of these students are middle class, they often graduate just to go to college. One girl I know was forced to return to Elan when her parents disowned her because she needed synthriod - a medication for people without a thyriod, so it might have been life-threatening if she did not return to Elan. Joe Ricci also owned a racetrack, which is strange because most theraputic school owners do NOT own racetracks. Not only did Joe Ricci bear a curious resemblance to a member of the Italian Maffia (complete with gold chains), but he was also caught with coccaine at least twice, and in quanties too large for personal use. Many of the staff in charge have no college degrees, and one of the popular and effective staff members was never promoted when all the others were, most likely because he was black. There was also a boxing ring which was used as a punishment. I am sure that this is illegal in all fifty states, and someone was heavily bribed. They only modify their program when they are under investigation, but are never forced to close their doors. Some politicians are probably being bribed. Its location is in Maine, not a very important or populous area of the country. Elan would not allowed to remain open in a state like New York or California, because it would get too much attention. One staff member repeatedly said that we could not sue Elan by law, which I know not to be true. I think many people do not want to deal with the litigation process, having to relive painful memories, they admitted to something in groups that they don't want people finding out, or they just simply don't have the money and leisure time to sue Elan. And since Elan is so well-protected legally in the state of Maine, many people feel that Elan will get off once again.

Very interesting theory. As for the furniture, did anyone know that all the furniture that housed Elan's building's, mainly the residents buildings, was made in prison? Which would also mean that it was either purchased at an extremly low low price or donated to them.
The bunkbeds were donated from old US military surplus. I think the only thing they purchased were those cheap sundries, ie soap, tooth paste.
Though I do beleive in elan 3's attic, which btw was locked off and off limits to us students, has a gold mine of old things stored in it. I remeber seeing some antique furniture, along with an old rifle that ofcoarse was inoperatable, along with other odd things that a modern day collector might find value in.
I was in the attic on dozens of occassions, many times without staff being present. They actaully could've made another dorm out of it which was once in discussion for higher strength to accomodate.
I recently wrote a small peice on how Sat. nite shotdowns lost movie privs and had to GI. We used to dump buckets and buckets of mop buckets of water all over the dining room floor. The water would run off down vents and into the baseboards. I can only imagine the structural damage we caused. This tradition started far before my arrival.
Also forgot to mention about the stories of the hunter that hung himself up there, and how his ghost haunted E-3. I think the story goes that you could hear his ghost walking around up there.
