Excellent article. I agree with you fully, but it's going to take a lot of arguing to convince those logical education minded parents that their child should be doing art instead of math.

I have a friend who is very good at school. He is not exactly "smart" but he has an uncanny ability for taking tests. We are taking physics this year and he doesn't do homework, or any of the problems for 3 weeks, and figures it out on the test. I've questioned him on it, and it seems like he uses a lot of "intuition" in addition to logic. It amazes me every time.
