"One Laptop Per Child" program uses "WikiTextbooks"

The potential for sustainable agriculture and sustainability education is 
tremendous
with this free, wireless, windup, inexpensive laptop computer widely 
distributed to children living in
low income areas in foreign countries. It was in the news tonight on PBS 
McNeil-Lehrer.

Tonight's broadcast included a great promotion for organically & sustainably grown and locally grown produce sold at 
farmers markets and on farmers markets as an institution. It also included a program article on Coly Collapse Disorder
(on now).

"One Laptop Per Child" program uses "WikiTextbooks"
[The Wikipedia, included with the new Kindle digital reader from Amazon, uses 
Wiki software, MediaWiki]
See http://www.permaculture.info/index.php/Main_Page for another 
implementation of MediaWiki.
