    I heard of a warm-up activity where participants read short anonymous childhood bios of famous people. As a group they have to decide who they will let in their school. The bios include Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein, and Adolph Hitler. I would like to use this activity soon (Tuesday!), and am hoping someone can email it to me or knows where I can download it. Other good ideas for our first meeting appreciated. Thanks, Lynn

    The only one I've heard relates it to abortion. It can be found on Snopes.com, there are some liberties taken with the bio's.

    Maybe it was adapted from your abortion related one. Where would I look in Snopes?
