A tad assumptive wouldn't you say to think that this time will be used to "pray" and even more assumptive to think that those prayers will be to G-d. Wishful thinking is pretty much a waste of time, but then again, we are talking about public schools. Maybe we should start legislating mandated instructional time during church services, couldn't hurt.

You know max, you are on to something. The school 'minute of silence' measure, if done all over the country has a real cost - I estimate about a half a billion dollars a year. (Assuming 50 million kids, one minute out of a 7 hour schoolday, and an annual cost of $3500 per kid per year to send kids to public schools) I'm sure the real cost is a whole lot more.....
