I look forward to the discussion.  Is it too late to add a few
questions?  If not, here they are!  What is the general funding model
that you're working with in project IDEAL and how are your traditional
classes and schools being impacted by students who are attending regular
classes because they can now study online?  Are you assuming that the
online population is a completely different population than those who
come to class?  Does studying online increase the number of students who
attend in classrooms in any way?  If the school providing the online
course gets funding for the number of students, do the students have to
be local or state residents?  For the most part, California schools get
funded by students coming to a school and sitting in a chair while
making progress on standardized tests such as CASAS.  There is a
distance learning component, but at some point students have to come to
a school and turn in their work on a regular basis in order for the
school to receive funding.  How are you addressing this with online
work?
