I...What a great night, all if it, even the noodles! I would love to have seen those performances, so I'm very jealous. I'm also so very much in awe of your home schooling and parenting. I'm trying not to retroactively judge myself, but my son could have benefited so much more from your program than the canned one he barely survived. Oh well. No do overs, and history does seem to be doomed to repeat itself some days doesn't it?

Your post made me even more so and thank you for reporting in on such a beautiful, inspiring evening. I'm so glad that Oliver got to go with you, that you are teaching him these things, exposing him to the greater and the good.

We should at least have "The Moon is Always Female," don't you think?<br /><br />I haven't heard Rage Against the Machine, though I've certainly heard of them. I keep thinking I should give them a listen.<br /><br />As for your last point, although the news is frequently discouraging, I really do believe we're moving forward overall. I think the people who would have us step backward into a more oppressive time make a lot of noise, but they're so noisy because they're losing.
