blog for 9/18

On the site "Boing Boing" http://www.boingboing.net/2006/01/12/nyt-on-indigo-childr.html , there is a posting about "Indigo children" and how they are mistaken as a child with ADHD, due to their personalities. The link on the blog has the full article that the blog comes from. The author of the article clearly agrees with this belief that there are "Indigo children" and that they have special psychokinetic powers, just by the mere fact that the author discusses this in a sincere tone and has very little about the opinions of the skeptics in his article.

I personally do not believe in this new thought. The "appearance" of the Indigo "aura" did not begin until the 1970's, where as before hand, psychics had seen the other colors represented in auras. If there truely were an Indigo aura, then it would have been noticed beforehand. I believe that people are just trying to find some way to explain behaviors that are naturally caused by chemicals in the brain, or lack thereof, such as ADHD.
