\nLaura and I both read and discussed with great interest, \"Prairie
\nFire,\" an article by Eric Konigsberg in the Jan 16?? issue of the New Yorker<\/em>.
\n(The article is not available online.) It is a terribly sad article
\nabout Brandenn Bremmer, the super high IQ boy from Nebraska who
\ncommitted suicide at the age of 14. Have any one of my readers also
\nread the article? I'm thankful for the Web that allows one to read what
\nothers have to say about magazine articles that we read: <\/p>\n

  \n emdashes: Eustace Google: The strange, sad case of Brandenn Bremmer<\/a>\n<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

• \n

  \n Gifted Exchange: The Life and Death of a Prodigy <\/a>\n<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  \nThe article was also the second mention for me of \"indigo children.\" The first came from the New York Times<\/em>:\n<\/p>\n

  \n

  Are They Here to Save the World? - New York Times<\/a>:
  \nIf you have not been in an alternative bookstore lately, it is possible
  \nthat you have missed the news about indigo children. They represent
  \n\"perhaps the most exciting, albeit odd, change in basic human nature
  \nthat has ever been observed and documented,\" Lee Carroll and Jan Tober
  \nwrite in \"The Indigo Children: The New Kids Have Arrived\" (Hay House).
  \nThe book has sold 250,000 copies since 1999 and has spawned a cottage
  \nindustry of books about indigo children. <\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
