What are they doing with themselves "out in the real world"?

Define "hurds".  I'm not quite sure who you're referring to.  Do you mean "herds" (as in cows / sheep)?  If so whom do you refer to?

Laurie and Paul Hurd--Laurie is the daughter of Joe Gauld, founder of Hyde School.  Paul and Laurie are former Hyde Students who returned as teachers. Laurie was Head of School until 2008.  The Hurds left Hyde with much fanfare last year, and I'm wondering if they are "retired," employed elsewhere, or still on Hyde payroll.

Aha.  At first I thought this was going to be yet another "Fornits readers are a bunch of junkies who can't hold down a job" threads (ironically posted by somebody who reads fornits).

No, It's more like "Hyde staff are cult junkies who can't cut it among real humans."  Still slightly mean spirited--but that's the mood I'm in today.

I was under the impression, and I can't for the life of me remember why, that they were going to be doing something with HAPA. When I read of this... er... development of HAPA and the  "Hyde-Hoffman Process (http://http://www.fornits.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=26801)," I thought maybe they would be involved with that. But I really can't back that up; I don't honestly know. Anyone else hear of anything?

See ALSO (http://http://www.fornits.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=27090).

@psy: Paul Hurd was also in Hyde School's first graduating class back in 1967. He had actually already completed high school and applied to college, but didn't get in anywhere. Hence he came to Hyde to improve his chances.

These people never actually LEAVE. A  guaranteed paycheck for anything Hyde-related, guarantees they stay involved.
