I decided not to go. I cannot live without the Internet. I work and live

didn't doubt it for a second!

Not sure who else is going ... will keep you posted.

Enjoy the EC,
Steve

Hi Maggie,

Thanks for this.

I think the abstract wording is very poor --- the whole tone is totally off
the mark in terms of how adults should be approach the Net Generation. I'm

Cheers,
Steve
