Perspective

If there's one thing we're all about here at NS&S, it's safe, self-propelled passage of children to school.

Whatever issues we have in Newton, though, there nothing like the challenges faced by children in the Nujiang Great Canyon in China. (Click through for more neat pictures.)

Without money for a bridge over the river, kids get to school by what looks like a combination zip-line and pulley system.

I can't decide whether I'm horrified or jealous.
