COMPUTER: DIGITAL DIVIDE:
Americans in the Information Age Falling Through the Net

This is quoted from Educator Bonnie Bracey.

I work internationally a lot, you know since officially the digital divide
does not exist in this country, and while we sit on our technology assets
other countries are leapfrogging to make a difference and how.
Several years ago we used to go and share the possibilities.
Now we may possibly be lagging so far behind that we cannot catch up.
