I've been blogging this morning from a coffee shop in my neighborhood. I'm now watching some guy tutor this little Asian kid in math. But not the typical math that most 5 year olds would learn (he can't be more than 5). They started discussing the importance and history of the null set, have moved on to canonical forms, and are now discussing introductory number theory (real numbers, natural numbers, ordinals, etc).
The tutor just made the statement "I know you've done a lot of calculus."
Seriously, this is math that I didn't even get to in college. And the kid is 5. Maybe 7. Tops.
