Is it the MIT folks behind the slick new Logo environments, with all the eye candy? I'm not up to date. I think we need to respect that people have different career goals, even when very young. To be a "prodigy" doesn't mean you're a cookie cutter copy of the "prodigy" in the seat next to you. For some, the eye candy aspect *is* the point. Just moving a stupid turtle around is boring boring boring, and we understood all about it the very first day (and so what?). Geometry, so what? Some people think that way. Do we beat them into submission then, just because "we" find Geometry beautiful all on its own?
