I read this last week.  It is not very well written.  I have written back and
forth with Brad Withers, author of the petition.  He seems like a very nice,
very concerned, very frustrated hser in NY State.  He wants to do something
to help hsers but I don't think he got as many responses as he wanted from
this petition.  I also believe that he is reconsidering the petition idea all
together and is looking to get involved in other ways as well.

Also testing is TOTALLY a state-by-state thing, and any activity (anywhere)
which attempts or suggest anything about federal regulations about
homeschooling is going to get a huge *NO* response from most homeshoolers.
