About a month ago, I attended a school field trip with my niece and her class. We traveled by bus to the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory in Livingston, Louisiana. The tour of LIGO was fascinating. There was a hands on learning area for students to gain added perspective on various science concepts. The Aquarium was enjoyable. The students were well behaved and quite pleasant for the most part. I cannot complain about these aspects of the trip in any way.

I do have some complaints about the bus ride. Time spent traveling on the bus was not enjoyable. The tour director was insufferable. As were many of the adults attending the trip with their children. I had no way of satisfactorily addressing the unpleasant parents on the bus. But, below the orange squiggle is the letter (minus specific identifying information) I was compelled to send to the tour director.

Please note: To protect patient privacy, I have altered the demographic information, but these stories and circumstances are all too real.

I would like to go to Washington, DC and meet with all the politicians who want to cut ever larger holes in the social safety net. I want to invite them to spend a day with me. I want them sit down and face the people I care for at the local mission clinic where I am volunteer nursing.
