I was inspired. But I have to admit I never did read the actual post. I saw it in the headlines of my RSS reader in a busy moment and never got around to digging it up when it wasn't in the headlines anymore. So despite the comments that don't sit well with you, your original comment ignited a moment where I could attempt to shine something brighter into my students' world (or at least attempt to do so). http://vimeo.com/5433788 Also I thought you might appreciate <a href="http://www.thenewatlantis.com/blog/text-patterns/i-will-hate-you-till-the-day-i-die" rel="nofollow">this post</a>, on a similar topic. .-= Geoff´s last blog ..<a href="http://ateacherswrites.wordpress.com/2009/07/01/we-teach-them-obedience-for-their-sake-not-ours/" rel="nofollow">We teach them obedience for their sake, not ours</a> =-.
