Agreed, but in his case Tell/Show are ingredients in which he bases potential learning capabilities on. If he were to be taught, he would have to rely on either "showing" or self-awareness only. (ie suddenly a child will decide to crawl..one could argue he gathered this from adults momentum - teaching - whilst on the other hand, teaching can be derived from ones self instinct based on a number of environmental factors.. point is, "teach me and i will learn" - meaning, reliance on an entity outside his closed environment... Also Show is one of those verbs that one could argue encapsulates a lot of actions related to teaching (ie show is another word for expose?).. hehehe...I'm loosing it..and I'm getting to argumentative lately so i'll back off :D Scott To unsubscribe from this email please forward this email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] If this communication is not intended for you and you are not an authorised recipient of this email you are prohibited by law from dealing with or relying on the email or any file attachments.
