The larks, still bravely singing, fly 
Scarce heard amid the guns below.”

Read this article about a tweet of a letter Daniel Radosh sent to his son's teacher, who required a permission slip to read Fahrenheit 451 (in 8th grade).  What do you think of his letter to the teacher?  What is the irony in requiring parental permission to read the book?  What does it demonstrate about our society?
