Learning

The illiterate of the twenty-first century will not be those who cannot read, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn.
- Alvin Toffler
I had the pleasure of meeting Aretae and his family for dinner a months or so back.  They're a pretty astonishing family.  Mrs. Aretae has started a photoblog of their adventures.  I particularly liked this one.  And this one.

They home school, and so have made the entire country the classroom for their kids. The photos are from that classroom.  Those kids clearly have learned how to learn, and learn again.  Smart guy, that Aretae.

And Mrs. Aretae, too, as you'd expect.  Also, it's her birthday.  Stop on by - this is interesting enough to get her an Instalanche.  So get going.

I read Toffler's "Future Shock" back in the 80's . . . . which of his works has this quote?
