I do have a distinct feeling that children are capable of far greater
intelligence than most attribute to them.  The only thing that limits a
child is lack of basic knowledge - things like reading and writing.  It
can make it hard at times for a child to get access to information,
especially when no one encourages them to learn.  TV shows like Barney,
TeleTubbies and books like Dr. Seus don't help things.  I feel that TV
shows such as the two aforementioned have a significant hand in the mass
stupidity of modern mankind.  TTYL!
