...given day, examine the millions of searches we type into Google, Yahoo! or MSN. Once you get past the 12% for online shopping, 9% for educational questions, and 5% for news, deep in the long tail of what we type into that empty search box, Internet users ask about fears. Measuring what we're truly afraid of is as simple as amassing all of the searches in a given week or month for the phrase "fear of." By doing so, we can rank our most common phobias...

If a vague reference to marijuana can be declared disruptive under the school’s policy, then these tendrils run too deep. Students spend a great deal of their time expressing diffuse or controversial views, and this level of invasion represents a threat to dialogue and stability.
