Are we witnessing the emergence of 'Crystal Children'?

In many metaphysical groups, there is mention of the so called Crystal Children being born (choosing incarnation), following the Indigo Children generation of the past thirty years.
According to these groups (many being named 'New Age' by subjective reductionist and traditional religious viewers), the human phenomenon is entering a stage in it's existence, where it will undergo extreme changes; many being of spiritual inclination. As also mentioned in my book, taking into account the existence of our species to be around 100 000 years, that the last century has been quite an 'action packed' one for the human race - from Art nouveau to Pollack, calculus to Internet, horse and carriage to supersonic fighter jets and two world wars (probably the most brutal and inhumane of all). It would seem - objectively comparing our last 100 years of development and 'history making' to that of the last 100 000 years of human existence - that the Law of Accelerating Returns (Kurzweil), Timewave Zero/One (late Terence Mckenna) and the Information Doubling Thesis (Robert Wilson), depicting our timeline to be exponential and NOT linear, with us at the very Event Horizon of a moment of singularity or an eschaton as McKenna put it, definitely points at something very important: That we are now living in a very interesting period of human existence, most of us completely in oblivion (this oblivion fueled by ancient dogma and modern consumerism).
It is in this very notion that the so called Indigo and Crystal children fit in. The Indigo's - as explained by these many metaphysical groups - came to break humanity free from the dogmatic chains of yesteryear (think of people like Martin Luther King and Rosy Parks to name but a few), challenging archaic ideas of society, to be replaced by more civilized ones, and to prepare the 'seed bed' for the next generation - the Crystal generation. Being more balanced, generous, spiritual and intelligent (in a holistic and universal way), they will prepare humanity for the next step in their spiritual evolution. By following a trail from young Cole Marcus - a genius boy drummer with his own MySpace spot on the net that linked to our music group - I stumbled upon many prodigy children on YouTube, and will on a weekly basis share their uncanny genius with the readers of this blog. For more information on Crystal Children, follow this link: http://www.crystalchildren.com/. I also wrote an extensive piece in my book about the need to change our views of children and their incredible importance for our future.
In the next video, you will see an 8 year old boy playing Chopin's Valse No.14. As I have had formal musical training (in piano) since the age of five, you can take my word for it when I say that this particular piece of music is by far too advanced for a child of this age. As a matter of fact, it will take most adults months before they can play this particular piece - especially considering Chopin's technical difficulty - at the level this boy performs it. Not only does he 'play' it; he understands the intonation of the piece, interpreting and performing it brilliantly.
