I'm constantly amazed that the PowerPoint Rangers associated with this program haven't all been the lucky recipients of Relief-for-Cause OERs. Fuck it... most of 'em will probably screen for flag rank before their careers are over.
"Powerpoint Rangers" are endemic to any sufficiently large organization...from DoD to MS to the Red Cross and the Girl Scouts. See http://www.norvig.com/Gettysburg/

Sigh. Everybody has hot buttons, I guess. Child support from wrongly-accused felons seems to be one of yours. The Crusader program is one of mine.
Stick around, I've got a number of buttons, and adhereing to legal priciples consistantly is only one of them . Being wrongly accused and convicted of a capital felony by the state doesn't excuse a parent from paying child support. :-)
