I must add, That my remarks concerning FithDimension were in support of
what I saw and in reaction to the idea that there was a competition
between "Video Arcades and Education" that Dale "suggests" (irony quotes).

I am both a strong supporter both of the use of ludic environments for
learning and engageing UG's with younger learners. I entirely appreciate
you work with what you have got. I feel you occupy the "space" you have
been given very well.

I hope I was not misrepresenting the work I saw. My point was to constrast
"formal" with "informal" and the issue that following official curriculum
material does not lead to the best thinking (by learners).
