Hi Barbara,

Sorry to hear that things look so bleak,

I do have a suggestion though ~ I kinow of one janitor who is having the
time of her life, in school!

Why don't you connect with Nathan Parker in New Zealand ~ he is doing some
amazing things with his school, and he's got the janitor involved with
WikiEducator and Linux! Nathan is also getting a cluster of open source for
education going....

The Warrington node on WikiEducator is:
http://www.wikieducator.org/Warrington_School/About

Cheers,

- Randy
