My apologies, I certainly didn't intend to put words into either Kirby or Arthur's mouths. I was only trying to address the "let's move this off list," ostensibly because both Kirby and Arthur had made some form of disapproving comments (not anti-turtle!). Personally, this kind of discussion is exactly the kind of thing that belongs on edu-sig, and it's a breath of fresh air to have so many different people posting on a topic (not that I am anti-Kirby or anti- Arthur, just pro-diversity). And pro-turtle. I wrote my own turtle graphics before noticing there was one bundled (and taking a different tact with it, more direct manipulation of the turtles). > And do not confuse my views with Arthur's.

Has anyone ever seen Arthur and Kirby in the same room together? %-) --Dethe All space and matter, organic or inorganic, has some degree of life in it [...] All matter/space has some degree of "self" in it.
