    What information do you provide in the initial signup? I don't remember from when I signed up. My sister-in-law was accepted this week and I'm curious as to whether or not there's a demographic pattern since the blanket idea of "too many workers" seems to be false if people are being accepted.

    They never do. My thoughts are that it might be geographical but I could be wrong.

    I guess it's safest to say that nobody knows. I felt silly telling her she might be denied when she was accepted within 48 hours.

    Those four deserve extreme punishments.

    I saw part of that video, those people that did that to that poor kid are scum. I hope every charge they levied against them sticks.

    Sadly as is usually the case, they'll accept a plea bargain and the majority of the charges will be dropped. However, this has gotten national attention. Hopefully they go to jail for a long time.
