The skills that we have acquired via structured learning they are developing intuitively. If a 4 year old can manipulate every part of her environment (I know, what 4 year old can't!)...remotely...what is possible when she is 13...or 20.

Many organizations are seeking ways to slow them down or stop the progress. How about you?
