In case you missed it, last week Bill Gates spoke before Congress on education and immigration.  The entire session is about two hours long and I saw it last week as it was rebroadcast on CSPAN around dinner time at my house, he has some very interesting responses to the questions.  While I can understand his point on immigration, I think that immigration needs major overhauls to stop the population boom we are experiencing, but his points on education are excellent. 

On Wednesday, March 7, 2007, at 9:30 a.m. EST (6:30 a.m. PST), Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates will testify before the U.S. Senate HELP (Health, Education, Labor & Pensions) Committee on U.S. competitiveness.
