Hi all -
There is an article that might be particularly interesting to math
teachers in this morning's Washington Post. It deals with an autistic 9 year
old who can do calculus. It was an interesting story showing how little we
know about learning I guess. If you do not have access to the paper, the
article is on:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/frompost/features/june97/autism.htm

and that includes everything of the text and 2 of the maybe half dozen
pictures that were in the paper.

As ever,
Bro. Pat Carney
