The woman did not want her name used. She, like the other farmers who were interviewed, said filing for bankruptcy was an embarrassment In her community because she would be perceived as a failure.

"It might perk an interest in young girls and boys in geography and history," Kearns said. "It might serve as a device to get a few Hoosiers away from the television set and off the bar stool.

"I'm serious about this. It's a serious bill for people who are interested in this. Who's to say this type of knowledge Isn't as Important as trying to figure out the atom and its properties?"
