Follow-Up Friday: Tolls on the Verrazano and Should the School Day be Longer?

The Brian Lehrer Show | Mar 31, 2010
It's not just Friday, it's Follow-Up Friday, when we take a look at questions raised by segments this week.

First, we bust the myth that the tolls on the Varrazano Bridge are temporary.

Then, would kids learn more if the school day were longer? We want to hear from anyone who has experience in both the American and the South Korean school systems.
