Leslie Owen Wilson 1997, 2005, restrictions on usage See companion course WebPages Creative Thinking and Living "Niente Senza Gioia" (nothing without joy) Of all my pages and parts of this website, the biggest surprise was the traffic I have received in the creativity section. Everyone has a story, a question, a comment, and yet this is a sorely neglected area in schools, in our children's training and education. Why is that? I already know, so I will let you ask yourselves the same question, and then ask teachers, school administrators, and politicians. Ask the same questions to business leaders and watch them pull their hair and frown. For while business leaders worldwide are clamoring for creative minds and hearts, schools are trying to stamp creativity out -- "so very messy. you know." Conformity, creativity -- is there really a choice? What is education really for? If you try to reach a site that has been hyperlinked and get an error message or a "page not found message," try again later. If the site still fails to appear after repeated tries, please contact me and let me know via my e-mail link so that I can remove it from my list. I know how terribly frustrating it is to click on a hyperlink and get a "page not found" message. Also, if you find an interesting or informative site related to my topic headings -- one not already part of my lists, please let me know the address so I can add it. Thanks! Have fun browsing and many blessings! Leslie
