Watch out, Forumistas!

But the video isn't working for me, so maybe Yahoo IT should hire this kid.

    Someone in this kid's very early life was watching what he liked to do.
    THEN;
    That someone reinforced every interest the kid had.
    This does not happen very often
    HOWEVER;
    When I see this type of thing, I feel that there is hope for our future.

    Time vs Money. At that age you had all the time in the world (so to speak), but limited no money to get access to the coolest of technologies. When money becomes available later in life there is no time.

    Life's cruel irony I guess.

    I am always excited by how cheap things are becoming so that money barriers are reduced giving kids opportunities to explore technology!!!

    (I don't have kids yet, wondering if they will be a geek like me or some kind of sports enthusiast, which I know nothing about...)
