SW10/WWW: Powernaut 1955 #13: SHRIEEEEEEEK!

No, Paula, don't touch that radiation oven!   ... Too late!  (Did anyone 
*not* see this coming?)

And for your prose-reading pleasure, here's another episode of Paulie's 
Pen Pals!

...

Dear Master Paulie,

I think it's horrible that your class trip was allowed to roam a 
fairground unsupervised. You obviously got in trouble with that bully, 
and the young ladies of your class were placed in danger. Where were the 
responsible adults?

Dear Miss Regina,

I don't blame my teachers for anything. Even in Power City where we have 
one teacher for every fifteen students, the teachers can't keep track of 
everything. I'm sure the girls' chaperone was there with them, just not 
standing right next to the villains so she couldn't protect anyone. And 
my teacher doesn't always intervene in bully fights even if he sees 
them, because he thinks we should be strong for ourselves. Maybe in the 
future we'll have even better teachers and supervisors than what Power 
City has now. And fewer bullies!

Thanks for writing!
