  abstract =     "This paper takes the stand that it is never too early
                 to teach so-called ``hard'' concepts in computer
                 science. Specifically, basic principles in parallel
                 algorithm development and software engineering can be
                 introduced to students first learning about computers.
                 The key is to present ideas in a manner that is simple,
                 fun and suited to the audience. We discuss an
                 interactive exercise developed with this premise in
                 mind, based on sorting algorithms, that we conducted
                 with one hundred minority students aged 14 to 17, on
                 March 19, 1993. Our students, relative neophytes to
                 high level computer science notions, had fun while
                 learning alleged difficult concepts.",
