Prologue to Crassroom Voices

Liao:    What's this book about?

Tim:     Education.

Melissa: (sighing) Ugh. That sounds dull.

Tim:     C'mon! Nothing is dull if approached correctly. D'ya notice how ya label things
         "boring" or "interesting" so quickly? Why? Boredom belongs to the inattentive.

Satoru:  Okay. I'm curious why a dude would write this sort ah stuff . . .
         Hasn't enough been written about education? Why another book?

Liao:    I think most books are for the authors – readers are incidental.

Tim:     Agreed. In the process of word spinning, gradually we redefine and
         transform ourselves.

Melissa: Nuf said. Let's take a peek . . .

Liao:    Argh. (feigning overwhelming fatigue) I guess I can manage ta turn the page.
