Wow,

To see technology used in such a "good nieghbor" sort of way invites
people you have never met to "your world." Thanks for sharing.

I have allowed the standard to rest, I have discovered that they (children
do not like to--not achieve) It leaves them bored and empty. I have the
pleasure of working with children and their ideas just recently I allowed
them to come in and just come and visit the internet, listen to the songs
already created, needless to say after just one month I have seen and
heard their boredom. Yeah, now they can self-improve but they did not
want it imposed on them.

Thank you for time.

Margaret Plenty
