EDUCATIONAL LABYRINTHS: Traversing Academic Mazes

Melissa: (briefly glancing at an artwork) This person needs to learn how 
         to protest more eloquently. Isn't this image merely muffled rubbish?

Satoru:  (nodding while drinking a dry martini) Agreed. A lot of energy 
         is wasted through rants offering no concrete solutions.
        
Liao:    I'm not so sure. As Sternberg points out, most creative ideas 
         are labeled "rubbish" at first. And solutions often emerge 
         in the process of struggle.

IMAGE: A sliver of a poem within an partly close neural gate surrounded 
       by turbulent energy sparks. This much of the arcane text seems 
       visible - 

	Like complex labyrinth
	s and twisted mazes sc

Melissa  (shaking her head after looking at the image above) Huh? 
         Only a small fragment of information here seems to get through.
         
Tim:     Well, that's that happens in most conversations . . .
