Stephen Dill replied to Anne Collier's discussion What Ken Robinson's book says about school"Anne, you ask two questions.

"The depth of your observations from last night is still resonating with me. I'm trying to think of another interview I've given where the questioner understood the material so well that he/she so regularly (and fluidly) went into new intellectual territory. I can't think of any. Pretty amazing. Thank you."
