"This school has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry
for the inconvenience. If you were in the middle of your education, the
information you were learning might be lost."

"We have created an error report that you can send to help us improve
our policies. We will treat this report as bin-fodder."

"To see what data this error report contains, close your eyes and think
of something pretty."
