Views

Hart believes that production and consumption of organic food is less safe and more expensive than conventionally produced food, although she admits that if "people want to spend more on the stuff, that’s their deal."[3] She does not believe that global warming is primarily a man-made condition. She thinks that comedy should not include cursing or masturbatory gestures.[4] She also believes that schools not celebrating with Halloween parties is scary and Orwellian.[5]

Education

In 1985 she graduated from the University of Illinois with a B.A. in Russian Studies.

gollark: Why would I just rebuild that? It would be cooler to make a giant sprawling messy complex.
gollark: Also suspiciously easy door locks.
gollark: That gives me an idea - I should make some sort of giant potatOS research complex on CN and pack it with random dangerous machinery, valuable loot, and warning signs.
gollark: They should set these games in the GTech PotatOS Research Laboratories™ instead.
