Dude... we should form a support group. 
And RE the first bit of the quote: recent reception of a competition prize made me feel a lot better about 'childishness' remarks. And then some. Thanks again to the Whites!
Oh, and I might've meant decibels, rather than octaves. I'm not sure.
1) Cool, will there be t-shirts and badges?
I know they mean well and want me to "reach my potential" and other such buzz phrases, mostly gleaned from the pop-psychology section of their latest child rearing textbook, but I don't want to teach a bunch of unruly teen monsters in a system I believe is failing them and especially not GCSE/A level science because 90% of the subject
bores me to tears. They were always a means to an end, I had to learn them to get where I wanted to go (marine biology or paleaontology). The idea of having to do carbon ring structures day after day, year after year, chills me to the very core!!
2) And well deserved it was too!! It's on my list when it comes out.
3) Either is good, squeaky versus loud, it's quite easy to go both.
Also, nice tagline, I've just read that
It has however put the kibosh on me working one of his terms about the butterfly of the buttocks in as mine.
