Hi Caryl,
I wrote that chapter on the manual. I would really like to know if there's
anything at all that's unclear about what I wrote.

The manual is not completely done. It needs editing and we would

Hello all you OSSIE (Open Source Software In Education)
You made me laugh so hard Caryl! Did the XO get a thorough patdown as well?
I bet it probably enjoyed the treatment. Maybe next time have them just

Happy Thanksgiving and safe travels!
