School department I attended used them until I was in middle school. As I recall the teachers made a big deal when we got a photo copyer. That was 1989 as I recall.

Cut off in its prime...

Excited, it's against the policy of this site to post access info or detailed directions here so you probably won't have much luck. Instead, I'd suggest El Peecho's Pennhurst site ( http://www.elpeecho.co...nhurst/pennhurst.htm ) which gives quite a lot of info and links to discussion boards about Pennhurst past & present.

What I would say is take time to research the place before you go, watch the newsreel and try to understand what Pennhurst represented and some of the terrible things that took place there. Don't be a muppet and damage it or take souvenirs, treat it with the respect that Motts did and that I would if I had ever had the opportunity to take a look around.

I'm English and my girlfriend is American... and the light-hearted 'to-may-to / to-mah-to' banter still tickles us lol! Not to mention the occasional confusion over vocabulary (especially regarding food items for some reason!?!) Well, as the old saying goes, we are two nations 'divided by a common language'. It's quite interesting to find out about the origins of the subtle differences in our speech and cultures...

I think the selective coloring is great here. I noticed the face on the cart as well and thought it was kind of ironic, Tragedy. My husband is British. We have had some confusion on occassion from the differences in American and British English. As others have pointed out Candy floss and cotton candy are one and the same.

i really want to go, but all my friends are chickens, any one have any advice?

I can't help but think of the Nazi death camps (shudder)

this place is a rush

Hey, OMG I was just web surfing and I came to this site that had this same exact picture on it but outside it was made to look stormy. Did you know about it Motts? (www.gothicstyle.co.uk/gothic_wallpaper.php)

There are many unmarked graves all over the hill.
Former State employee, Have seen records that indicate at least 200 unmark graves of those unfortunate patients that had no family...........
The state is in a hurry to get rid of the propertie to hide the abuse and neglect that went on thier for many years....Many expierements were done to residents without thier knowledge the worst was the testing of radiation during world war2. It was feed to residents in oatmeal. Only the reidents without family..........

Wow....just....Wow
