The word prodigy doesn't quite seem to cut it.

We'll probably here a lot more from the kid in the future. Pretty inspiring. It's amazing that he does so much with so little while kids here who have everything do so little with it.

That is awesome! Really cool how inventive he is. Makes me laugh thinking about the kids who are pissed about their iPhone5 not being as good as the new iPhone6

Amen on that! Good for him, it's defiantly nice to see a child who thinks not only of his or hers self first.

Kids are amazing, I'm more impressed with the teacher seeing the value and doing something about it; what was needed to get the kid what he needed to inspire the creativity... Good on both of them!! I look forward to some great things from the kid!

Kid in Siera Leone scavanged parts from a dump and built an FM transmitter from scratch. Then he made a radio station for his community to discuss community issues. A guy at MIT brought him to the US for 3 weeks to study and play around with MIT's cool toys. Everyone left happy. Kid has a bright future. The end.
