I was reading about this today and thought what a good business it'd be for people living where it never snows.Parties, functions, etc etc

As long as the older generation fuels that young mans dreams he is going to do just fine. 

Now if he gets exposed to the dream stealers so commonly found in our schools, it can make things miserable.  We have some local teachers that have been teaching so long they feel that this generation cant be tought anything so they just give up on them and even publicly put them down. 
Integrity is doing the right thing when no one is watching!

Thats happening again? I thought it changed just after I left school several decades++ ago. Reckon it depends on the school.
Remember the school I told you I ran with some people? We fashioned it after A.S Neils' Summerhill in the U.K.
You'd probably really like it.

He is about 65 miles North of me.  I might have to invite him to the Tree Farm and put in a ski resort here for parts of the Winter months.  Diversification is the name of the game.
