Is this thing on?


I was recently speaking with a visitor about her family's trip to Alaska. A young mother of two, she had a strong connection to nature and a desire to pass it along to her children. She was describing their visiting a magnificent waterfall that could only be described as breathtaking - the intricate rock layers, the power of the water, the sensation of all the spray, all of it. Absolutely certain her children must be feeling this sense of awe, she asked the six year old, "Honey, what do you think?"

"It's pretty cool," he said, "But where are all the toys?"
