they all have their own sticks so that might not be quite so easy.  Also I
don't want to do it during classroom time.

We hope to start an afterschool session on  Sugar on Fridays in a couple of
weeks.  Want to help?

I think once we've done that for a few times we might be able to ask to
"borrow" some kids who have yet to use Sugar some afternoon when they are in
after-school. Give half of them one kind of stick and half another in the
GPA computer lab.

Realistically, I think it will be about a month before I could set that up,
just in terms of how many new requests I can give the school at once.

There is also a club at Harvard using XOs in a Boston after school program.
I'm not sure where they are in their process but they might be able to
provide a test bed on XOs.
