Even as an artist, with many of those graphics you speak of on my page, I appreciate good words and get very depressed at the lack of them encountered so frequently on the Net theses days. I will keep looking for the alleys and by-ways and hope to come upon more of your work. _____ sandi •••@••.••• http://www.vcomm.net/~sdd/ @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Sender: Don Bass <•••@••.•••> Friends: I am very interested in Mr. Whiting's comments about writing and some of the great examples he has seen on Internet. I would like to comment on that and offer and idea or two about good writing and Cyber-rights advocacy. (a bit rushed right now). As Marilyn Davis wrote yesterday lamenting her writing modeleling... Yesterday I saw a great phrase from Marilyn Davis, software engineer and developer of EVote, and she thought she was "being blinded by her vision." This is profound and I understand it.

(And Andy, I am very happy that you are on the road back. Really nice.)
