Art,
I think you will find if you recheck my message that I refered to
www.martinlutherking.org as a real site not a parody. My thinking behind
this is that there is nothing intentionally funny about the MLK so I can
treat it with the seriousness (in terms of the racism) that it warrants
whereas the White House parody site, I don't have to contend with the
students' remarks that it is "only a joke".
