When I started reading their course using Scheme, and I saw the way it worked, it was like I had come to the top of a mountainous pass and suddenly saw the blue-green vista of endless, verdant fields stretching away before me. That is a feeling I have not had in the last 10 years with regards programming and it is a crying shame that forthcoming MIT first-years will not have the same degree of understanding.
