Do any of you do work in Senegal? We are in the early stages of planning a DD project there. We want to have public access, a computer lending library, computer fundamentals training and entreprenuerial assistance. There is a microloan program in place foe entrepreneurs. I want to find a partner already working there for guidance.

Number Squares logic puzzles on the web (runs on any web browser that has Java installed) http://virtualapple.org/2listN.html (click on the words Number Squares at the bottom of this web site) phil yes, it's quite something seeing one's creative work from 20 years ago come alive again in a web browser. it's like revisiting a favorite friend that you haven't seen in many years. -- Phil Shapiro pshap...@his.com http://www.his.com/pshapiro/briefbio.html http://philsrssfeed.blogspot.com http://www.his.com/pshapiro/stories.menu.html "Wisdom starts with wonder." - Socrates "The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew, and act anew. We must disenthrall ourselves, and then we shall save our country."
