Horizon Academy moved from Amargosa Valley to La Verkin months ago due to a water dispute.

They are now housed together with Cross Creek Programs. So the program is up and running.

"In September 2009, after admitting to my parents that I was atheist, I was abruptly woken in the middle of the night by two strange men who subsequently threw me in a van and drove me 200 mi. to a facility that I would later find out serves the sole purpose of eliminating free thinking adolescents."

Right now it has 1,828 'upvotes' but it's most likely way more than that because reddit fuzzes the votes to protect against spammers (so spammers can't see what's effective or not). People who actually vote are a small percentage, most people on reddit don't even have accounts. There are likely tens of thousands of people who read it, it could well be over 100,000, especially with the boing-boing coverage. The bloggers are passing it around, too.
