Ah.....Rudolph Steiner.......interesting man. Mad as a box of frogs of course, but the education system that flowed from his craziness has a great deal to recommend it.

Gentle introduction to school, lots of nature walks and dance and art, everything (including science) presented in an artistic way, wide curriculum. I have a lot of time for it - a friend was Steiner educated and is a brain surgeon, so they do not miss out academically.

The batty philosophy behind it is not taught in Steiner schools, so the pupils get the benefits but not the crazy stuff.

And no, I have never met a faery - they share a category with Father Christmas - charming idea and harmless, but not real.

No, not even after a couple of glasses of wine.

Has anyone had met or seen a Faery? By these, I really meant those that Rudolph Steiner would have called an Elemental?
