An Interesting School Assignment

About a month ago I was sitting next to my manager and two girls came up to him with an "assignment" from school. They needed to do a book report on herpes. So being the dutiful librarian that he was he promptly asked them how many sources were required, what kind of sources they needed etc. etc. They hesitated and then said that a web source was fine so then my manager turned to the web and found information on herpes. He then asked them what they needed to know for their "book report" as they both fidgeted in front of the computer. They said all they needed to know was how it was spread, nothing else. So my manager told them and they went on their way.

At least the two girls went to a reputable source of information for their "book report" instead of one of their "classmates."
