Seth,

I saw something odd, but I'm not registered to do anything about it right
now and time seems short.  I'm not even sure right now which wiki or
location to put such a comment on, so I'm going to dump it on you (sorry).

Last paragraph, I think the word should be "hardened".  Also frustrating is
spelled wrong, do the floss tools have a spell checker?

 Note to parents and teachers

Sugar is designed to be modified by the user. Rather than build a "harden"
but brittle and opaque platform, Sugar is easy to change—but also easy to
recover in case you make a mistake. Sugar takes computing "beyond black
boxes"  Look inside, make changes, and learn through debugging. You may find
it frustratrating at first, but you will be amply rewarded for your efforts
as you learn to master the machine, rather than have it master you. Try it,
you'll like it.
