If you all havent guessed 64.107.141.20 is the ip of Lake Forest Hich School. If it were possibly to permenentally block edits from this ip (or until teenagers become mature), but still allow logged in users, it would be great and problably save you all a bit of trouble. Just look at 64.107.141.20's contribs.

[edit] Contradiction

From this article:

The 1980 film Ordinary People is set at Lake Forest High School, and parts of the film were shot at LFHS, altough the swim team scenes were filmed at Lake Forest College.

From Ordinary People

However, all of the pool scenes were filmed on location at Libertyville High School, which was believed to have superior aquatic facilities.

We need an authoritative source on this one. Daniel Case 07:00, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

As a student of Lake Forest High School, an acquaintance and 3 year swimmer on the swim team here can verify 100% that said scenes were in fact shot at the Lake Forest College, and on a side note, he also mentions the reason for not using LFHS's facilities was due to the lack of sufficient space at LFHS's pool. He has swam at both LFC and Libertyville, and a multitude of other local college and high school facilities. In addition to his word, Libertyville is not listed on Filming Locations of Ordinary People (1980) The PKPerson 03:24, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
I'm resolving this by changing the pool filming locations to Lake Forest College pool. If anyone contests, I'll walk out of my hose, down 3 blocks to LFC and take a picture of the pool. Plus, IMO, it sounds like some student from Libertyville wrote that. The PKPerson 04:43, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] IP adresses for LFHS (Just for reference)

70.91.248.249, and 64.107.141.20 are the two IP adresses that LFHS uses. Cheers. --BLuToRsE 21:00, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
