  Today’s first guest is Roger Burrows who teaches CAPP classes at the High School says he’d like to create a “technology vision” statement for the PCSD. Accordingly he says “I’d like to share a vision of how the school could be transformed technologically - to stimulate new ideas, new ambitions, etc., so that the school can educate with up-to-date technologies that will prepare students for the future - starting at young ages - say 8 years of age.  John and Lynn’s second guest is Matt Ridley, author of The Evolution of Everything: How New Ideas Emerge.   The New York Times bestselling author of The Rational Optimist and Genome returns with a fascinating, brilliant argument for evolution that definitively dispels a dangerous, widespread myth: that we can command and control our world. The Evolution of Everything is about bottom-up order and its enemy, the top-down twitch—the endless fascination human beings have for design rather than evolution, for direction rather than emergence.
