Thanks for that Caryl. I'm using Gmail and it seems I have to click
Reply to all instead of Reply, which I keep forgetting. But even
now, the IAEP address only comes up as CC. Hmmm

Hi All..
I think Kevin meant
Android is kin to Linux with a heavy dose of Java. Sugar tends to be more
Pythonic than Java-esque, but perhaps the Android Scripting Environment
(ASE) can mitigate some of that...

Off the top of my head...
* Bounce Through (Bounce Thru)
* Tear Down the Wall -- though that immediately
conjures up We don't need no education ;-)
* Eureka -- as in I've just had a break through
* Deconstruct -- deconstructionism? ;-)
* Wrecking Ball
* Knock Down
projects in any
way you find enjoyable. When I was a teenager I really enjoyed school
and studying (still do), but if you don't, perhaps you could test
drive some of the high school activities in Sugar on a Stick (SoaS)
and write about the things you like or don't like there.
Hope this helps,
Kevin
