National Merit Corporation bullies blogger

I just read an appalling story of a blogger being bullied by the National Merit Scholarship Corporation. She posted their cutoff PSAT scores for each state (I hadn't realized that they varied at all) and was threatened with legal action if she didn't take down the information.

Not surprisingly, after hearing about this someone else compiled the same information, and all the corporation has done is highlight their questionable judgement in a variety of ways.

I linked to the scores on the NMS wiki page...hopefully it will get some legs there: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Merit_Scholarship
