Reason #3437 Why I'm glad I'm out of High School:

On the St. Louis news, a high school teacher was put on suspension for various things. Not following the lesson plan, letting his students use "inappropriate" technology, and oh, yeah, WIZARDRY. Because he did a disappearing toothpick trick.

There's two parts to this. One, that wizardry is an offence that needs to be punished. The second is that you're stupid enough to mistake a slight of hand trick with magic. ( There's the "does magic actually exist or not" part, but I'm tired and don't feel like it. )

In SRS Business news, apparently the hub for the AT&T/Gov'ment spying on the internets is also near St. Louis. The OMG WIZARDRY was on first.

Clearly, slight of hand tricks are works of the Devil and must be expunged from the school system. THINK OF THE CHILDREN.
