Carpundit proposes a punishment for the Houghton's Pond lifeguards who allegedly wouldn't give CPR to the little kid:
... Dismissal is too easy a punishment. The article was optimistic about the child's prognosis, so I'll assume a full recovery. In which case the lifeguard(s) should be pilloried, flogged, and then dismissed.

Because it was such a nice morning, and we had some time to kill, Greta and I drove over to Houghton's Pond this morning.
As usual, I took my camera with me (Greta and Nancy have somehow learned to tolerate me and my camera). As Greta effortlessly went around the monkey bars (the playground there has an unusual round set), I took some pictures (I love how she can do that; maybe because, as a kid, I sucked at it). We played tag for a few minutes. Then we walked over to the snack bar, got some chicken fingers and fries and went over to the beach for lunch.
