AAPS Salamander Update
Josh Steichmann has an interesting post at Arbor Update with original reporting on the Ann Arbor Public Schools endangered salamander controversy. Didn’t we totally predict this in 2003?

OT, but for some reason the link to this message in the RSS feed 404s. This has happened earlier.

Thank you, js. If not for your report I couldn’t have obtained such detailed info elsewhere.
posted by tiny frog on May 13th, 2005 at 8:45 pmYeah. You’re more popular than you know. Probably because everyone loves your punning latin name… (And you’re welcome.)

posted by A Different Jon on May 15th, 2005 at 1:26 pmspeaking of which, it’s worth noting for the record that AAIO’s birthday is coming up May 22; good wishes for the author of this notorious/well-loved blog are in order.
posted by warty toad on May 15th, 2005 at 3:55 pmrandom question: does anyone know ann arbor law on minor in possessions and what the penalty of a second offense is? i know the first one you get the probation/fine but no record thing but does anyone know what the penalty for second time around is?
posted by Anonymous on May 15th, 2005 at 11:19 pmHey - happy B-Day AAiO - I’ll buy you a beer when I get back to Ann Arbor.
