[Grassroots-l] [OLPC-SF] Jan 16 meeting

[carol]

14 Jan 2009

Dear Sameer, 

I want to say: THANK YOU, for the otherwise and usually thankless job of
organizing the OLPC-SF meetings.  

Agenda Item for Saturday:  

OLPC as a harbringer of liberty, a brief share and tell. 

Explanation:  I spoke last week at the International Society for
Individual Liberty (ISIL), not on  OLPC and not on Afghanistan, but I
brought my XO to show to anyone interested.  There was much interest,
and I was struck by the fact that the Constructivist educational system
embodied in OLPC shares the same individualist philosophy as the
ISIL.   

Best regards, 

Carol Ruth Silver
