HOLY F**K!

So, I was doing some browsing at the freechild.org site, contemplating getting more involved with this organization. I click a few links over to the "Reinventing Childhood" site, and start looking at the "Adults as Allies" page...

"Hm, sounds awful familiar... Wow, excellent point... Y'know, these are exactly the points I would have made. Gosh, didn't know there were other people out there so in line with my thinking. ...Wait a second -- 'the heart and soul of an ally'? I'm almost certain I wrote something under that title..."

Then I get to the bottom of the page: Adapted from "The Role of Adults in Youth Liberation," http:/generator.puddingbowl.org/archives/001082.php

No wonder why it sounds so familiar -- this page was directly adapted from one of MY essays!

And I didn't even know about it. Too cool!

Addendum, minutes later:

And I see on the "definitions" page several terms that I personally coined.

And here's the write-up I get on the "links" page:

Sven Bonnichsen's writings on age, ageism and adultism. Fascinating, effective and penetrating insights into the dominating culture of adultocentrism.
