"There are only two things wrong with most special education for the mentally handicapped; it isn't special, and it isn't education." ~Alice Metzner “ Time buries the mistakes of many school programs." ~Richard H. Hungerford "The mentally retarded continue to be the least of the last minority in the United States —the least understood, the most different, the least appreciated. Still it 'seems probable that, in the words of Voltaire, 'Their time has come.' and, in spite of the ignorance and general indifference of the public, the lot of the retarded is looking upward.'' ~Richard H, Hungerford Christmas in Purgatory 1966
