I am surprised and disappointed that some might think Clay Robinson's message about the two children working on the Internet report (I presume that's the posting Clay refers to in his May 9 message) is unrelated to this listserv and its readers' interests. Children actively learning about the Internet is the precursor to development practitioners using computers for their purposes. Isn't education part of development? We certainly answer the requests of college students asking for information. Are we so snobby that we will not provide the same aid for children? I would like to thank Clay for giving me the opportunity to help Stevie and Amanda.Carolyn Davis Ohio University
