"... and, after that, A.D.P.O.Y.P., or Attention-Deficit Put On Your Pants. Finally, I realized that Billy is a Dandelion Child, a term used for unusually bright and active children whose special powers will someday change the world."

The New Yorker article is in heavy competition with Charles Krauthammer's take-down of Francis Fukuyama in the WaPo as today's best read.
That was awesome. What a good morning!
I must have missed your post about Indigo Children last January, otherwise I would have commented.
I met Jan Tober and Lee Carroll in the early 90's when Lee thought Jan's woo-woo thoughts were nonsense. Then Lee had a great idea: he started channeling "Kryon" for fun and profit.
"Kryon" was, at first, very concerned about the Grays -- apparently because they were leading us astray. But then the Indigo Children appeared with the task of leading us to a better place.
I'm happy to hear that there are "Dandelion Children" now. Maybe there's hope for me. As a Monday's Child, I'd like to be transformed to some other auric type (and without drugs, for sure).
Dandelion children!? My God! I get too riled over such clap-trap to even comment.
The "AreYourPetsLimping.com" link is the best

I LOVE the choice of "Dandelion."
I wonder what he could do with "Kudzu" or even "Morning Glory," for example.
That piece was inspired!
I loved the areyourpetslimping.com bit, too.
The Dandelion Child sounds very similar to the Piranha Brothers of Monty Python fame, "He nailed my head to the floor".
