So?  What's wrong with practicing and/or sharing raps?

Don't you have a rap?

No need to practice?

I like the way doctors and lawyers talk about "having a practice"
as in "what else would one have?"

A gaggle of geese.

A practice of doctors.

Anyway, what's the motivation have all of us come to any one
unified opinion about this Alan Kay character?

None, right?

We each have our stories at the end of the day.

What's important is to get on with CP4E and/or OLPC or whatever
we're calling it.

You distrust the crassly commercial.  I think academics might
be missing the boat.
