I hear Scientology's #Narconon is back in CA #schools, tho banned after @SFGate stories http://bit.ly/1eh39j1  & http://bit.ly/1jFofwq

For any who don't know who Nanette Asimov is, she is a journalist who was instrumental in getting Narconon removed from the schools in California back in the mid-2000s.  The bit.ly links above go to her stories, as do these longer links:

It's bad to hear they're getting back in the schools there - can anyone get any more information?

I think she's also the niece of Isaac Asimov, which officially makes her one of the greatest people in the world.

Her uncle never confused sci-fi with religion.

Yes, she is. Her father Stanley was Isaac's brother

She's a real hero in my book and I'm glad she's keeping her eye out for the snake

I'm not sure if this was what Nan was tweeting about, but here's some more info about California:

Good to see some people have written.  Rod Keller, a long-time critic and activist, had made a comment on the high school's Facebook page, and was subsequently banned from the page.  Here's what he posted there:

The California Healthy Kids Resource Center has determined that Narconon is inappropriate for use in California Public Schools due to providing inaccurate and misleading information.

State Superintendent Jack O'Connell urged all California schools to drop the Narconon antidrug education program as a result of this report.

The comments are interesting in how few 'socks' are there. The story's also being picked up by other local news outlets.
