Many moons ago, I used to get computer science students working with me for their co-operative education work terms.
I always thought it was great how their lack of "baked-in baggage" always turned into questions that had me doing some hard reflection about how I did things, and every once in a while they'd do things in a wonderfully disruptive way. - Reminds me of *this story* <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SP0qMFA4xdA> Well, I've got a ton of baked-in baggage, but if I can turn that into a once-in-a-blue-moon innovative bit of wonderfully disruptive mind-bender, maybe that can help keep me somewhat youthful. Or prep me to be the mischievous senior citizen I hope to be. Yeah, my time guesstimates for video length are brutal. If you play the video at high-speed, though ... Oh, I was thinking "An Information Kiosk", one place serving out a plethora of various information goodies. Now, I'm imagining an electronic kiosk, running a small Live version of Linux (Puppy Linux !), booting up immediately to a view-only TiddlyWiki. Beautiful idea.
