I don't get the feeling that the next gen of programmers (if the species isn't extinct) won't have much to learn from SICP ... and I'm saddened by that. In particular, trying to introduce some programming to kids seems like a herculean task since they've seen gaming nirvana already - like how do we deal with "when will I be able to make a game like Minecraft?" when 2D sprites and gaming logic do not spike any interest? It's like a computer is a laboratory for doing mathematics and mathematics needs to move from proofs towards empirics to be of interest ... vague thoughts, but yeah.
