Based the animal rights 10 to 1 ratio on an old estimate from membership lists we kept for our Amnesty International writing circle. We logged 120 members but only 10 to12 were active. The Anti-Aquarium animal rights people logged hundreds of members with lots of active people going to demonstrations. It’s easier to shed tears over the treatment animals than humans:-( (Can’t remember their actual title but didn’t like their wimpy politics and preferred the Paul Watson Sea Shepard group–so I’m biased). Anyway, my numbers are likely total crap but “feel” right.

For Ashley – try “Mindfulness” by Ellen J. Langer (original 1989) > http://www.ellenlanger.com/books/3/mindfulness https://learn.canvas.net/courses/411/discussion_topics/8738/page-3 <:
"I am currently working in a classroom where 80% of the girls are ex-pats. These girls have spent 1-10 years of their lives attending school in their home countries. They are now all together in grade 10 with a very diverse range of backgrounds and experiences. They are studying in a totally new country, system and all mixed in together. Among my girls, the Egyptian students are consistently some of the most humble, hardworking and appreciative. Your post outlining the state of education for girls in Egypt has enlightened me in a very real way. Thank you."
