Thanks. > I agree. What I find most notable about the story is the poor light it shed on the instructor. Someone who is supposed to be training young minds appeared to be completely oblivious to the presence of very creative thinker. Even if the kid was not doing so hot in his studies the power of his mind should have been obvious to a responsible "teacher". If I were in that instructors position I would be quite proud to have the opportunity to cultivate such a talented young mind. The arbiter seemed to have a clue at least. xponent Slacker Maru rob _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
