This isn't a flame at Malcom, but shouldn't we be normalizing the
dollars spent on education with the escalation rate of the cost of
providing education in California, rather than by the overall
inflation rate of the United States economy?

I would love to make 80% of the median home price; like my mother
did when she was a young engineer at HP in the mid 1970's.  >:-)
I know, I know.....the golden years......the 1970's in Silicon Valley.
