<br>
Sometimes at <a href="http://ceibaljam.org" target="_blank">ceibaljam.org</a> we receive comments from children, always<br>
very interesting to read. I thought I should share the following. This<br>
kid created a new group in drupal with the following message (roughly<br>

Let's improve Phisics (sic) together<br>
<br>
hi, my name is German Vargas and I'm thinking about a very good<br>
idea... I'm an 11-years-old kid, this year I turn 12 on December 3rd.<br>
One of my favorite games in the xo is: Phisics. I love this game<br>
beacause it's about logic, I love experiments and logic games,<br>
construction games, in this game, I play in version 4, I have created<br>
many things like: cars, motorbikes, houses, dolls, people, laberynths<br>
with marbles, etc. I realized that many things are missing, more tools<br>
for this game, to build more things, objects and tools are needed<br>
like: first of all arrows that would let you move the map and COMPUTE<br>
HOW MUCH SPACE YOU WILL NEED TO BUILD WHAT YOU WANT, also woods, bike<br>
wheels, car wheels, wheels of the size you want and need, rockets,<br>
gasoline, oil, diesel, fire, water, explosives, mortar, bricks,<br>
cannons, metal balls, wood balls, stone balls, many things are<br>
missing, motors with their speed, cables, wind, fans, propellers,<br>
small motors, batteries, sockets, electricity, one controller that<br>
controls everything, etc, many things, and for this a lot of effort is<br>
needed... I need you to help me and make a group that together, we<br>
could do all this and improve Phicics every day a little, so children<br>
and teenagers can use this activity in class and build what the<br>
teacher asks them. Phicics also has to have animals that move by<br>
themselves or that you can move, people that drive by themselves, or<br>
even that you drive them so they can drive trucks and cars, bikes,<br>
etc. Please, I need your help and that we all together can improve<br>
Phicics, let's work as a team, please!!! bye!!!...<br>
