Yes, wonderful indeed. Thanks kvchellappa.

May not be super related, but I recently came across this TED talk by Sugata Mitra. The link is how children learn and whether teachers are even needed. The reference to these kids debating genetically modified food reminded me of a reference in this TED talk about children in a village in India learning about DNA.

Even if 50% of what he says is replica table, it is mind blowing.

He won the TED prize of a million dollars to take his approach further.
