Morning Brew: March13th, 2007

Your morning news roundup for Tuesday March 13th, 2007:

A massive home ecstasy lab bust turned up $40million worth of drugs, chemicals, and equipment - and a couple of kids. Some people clearly shouldn't be parents.

In the second separate incident within a month, another Wheel-Trans driver has been charged with sexual assault. I think it's time to take a long, hard look at the employee screening process over at Wheel-Trans.

Online tax filing should be back up and running by Thursday, so they say. This is good news for those of us that find envelopes difficult and stamps archaic.
