I thought when I first read this it might be good to know the ages of these kids. Maybe something to have there in the book? Did you have a reason for not putting them there? Also I think in a later blog you write about how 'these guys are teenagers and have to work out their place in the world'. I think that's a really interesting point as when I read this (if I remember rightly), then you kind of think about these people being great for how they have wirghed up the situation and and putting their efforts in some pretty cool places. But I too easily forget to think about myself. When I was this age everything was a problem, you had all these stupid worries, women, friends, acceptance, your later statement reminds me of this and I think that if a few of the kids had made statements like this is would be interesting to here them, so that I can more relate to the kids, where as here they are just these 'wonder kids', which in some way actually takes away from them? Anwyay, there's an idea. WRN.
