Editor's note [This article comes from a 9-year old boy living in Compassvale Raod, Singapore. The article exemplifies why I love education- the fact that I can read something written by someone 20 years younger and learn something new. You never know who you're going to learn from next!]

should not have been opened, we would know when someone, who shouldn't
be coming in, is in fact coming in - right?
