<p>Today's (Sunday 20 November 2005) New York Times Magazine has an interesting cover story </p>
<p><a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2005/11/20/magazine/20prodigies.html%5B/url%5D">http://www.nytimes.com/2005/11/20/magazine/20prodigies.html</a> </p>
<p>about some rather prodigious young people, with a historical overview of how Americans have looked at talent development of gifted young people over the last century. It's a very interesting and I think well-researched article, marred by some of the worst-chosen illustrations I have ever seen.</p>
