Beware the uniquely Liberal concept of ownership. For John Stuart Mill,
ownership meant title and control. For many others it merely means taking
responsibility, as in "owning up to" an act or decision. In the first sense,
assuredly, many techno-literates do not own computers but use them in common
Well said, James
I couldn't agree more.
I'm a musician and find MTV's callous display of what it thinks today's
young peoples 'values' are disgusting.
As legitimate grant fiscal streams like the Federal TOP program are diminished
or aborted I guess we can expect bottom feeders like this to emerge.
I have two extra copies of a 2003 edition of the Journal of Technology in
Human Services (ISSN: 1522-8835); one of the books is published as
"Technology-Assisted Delivery of School Based Mental Health Services", but
it's exactly the same content.
I am offering each of these journals for free to a
And that's precisely what they've begun to discover in the US, where there
are millions of computers in schools and community centers that are never
used. Funny thing. It's a system not a toy.

Thanks Larry! CODATA and ICSU are keen to promote open access to

I was wondering if anyone else was planning to attend the ITU's WSIS

Your help needed. I've been asked to investigate the future of Wifi for
municipalities with the advent of WiFI. could a municipality or bordering
municipalities establish their own

thanks alot for that Peter.
It looks very interesting.
I will have to have a look at it after class this afternoon

Your article reminds me of my small village in Nigeria, where the parish
priest chose to give back to the community by sharing the power generator
and the V-SAT in the rectory with the villagers through subsidized phone and

Taran Rampersad wants to believe, it would seem, that 20 people owning 20
