AMEN.

I'll compose something in the next few days. Were we just talking about
"focus"? Hmm.

Were you speaking above/^ about Jenny or Kriseya? I think Jenny is well in
hand now. We're searching as hard as we know how for K.

Will do. When, _if_ I get time soon, I'll compile & share resources we know.
May be helpful. I'll also note why they fizzled for us. We had a knack of
asking for help at the wrong time. Hope the tide has changed for us.

I'd think Dan would appreciate any avenues of info dissemination. Will do.

Thank you! How do you handle it all?? "Not possible to overload" you??
Do you have help? I'm naturally curious, but often restrain myself: I note
what takes place on some conferences, and figure that I must wait to know
some things. Still, I'm very interested in knowing more about you.
>> Jenny Wilcox...way to get a brief story about her "crossposted"?
RT> A few ways to accomplish this. First, assuming the BBS you call has
RT> all of the available conferences you wish to target, upon entering
RT> your message here, in VFALSAC, you may, depending upon the BBS
RT> software, be prompted at some point with the option to "Forward" your
RT> message into another area. Lacking this feature, what I might suggest
RT> is preparing your messages off line, and using the ASCII protocol to
RT> upload the same text file into the various message areas, one-by-one.
No, among several BBS's, none have all the conferences. I get them piece-
meal. As for ASCII stuff, that's presently over my head. I'm a computer
kindergartener. I do well--and not very well--just getting into and out
of BBS's. Necessity, not talent, drives me.
RT> If you lack access to a particular conference, post here, and leave me
RT> a short note requesting that I forward it to XYZ conferences, and I'll
RT> take care of it from my ned. I enjoy a quick turn-around time, your
RT> message of slightly after midnight of the morning of the 24th having
RT> arrived here at 2 P.M. the same day. If you'd like to cross-post to
RT> WITCHHNT, an Internet message area, George Hero would be the one to
RT> ask about that.
Yes! This I can do! Good to know of your turnaround. My "personal"
turnaround, is another matter. I just dropped Am. On line because I'd been
so ineffective at searching the internet, and was lately trying to find
witchhnt, at Matt Love's (a Jenny contact) suggestion. Are you saying I can
contact them through crosspost, or just crosspost some stuff to them? There
is probably a lot on internet, & I'll try to learn. Do you search on it?

I've put this on my to do list also. It's getting longer...

RT> Again, ask Bob for clarification as to the scope of this conference.

ANEWS? Would this be Amnesty? P--is that Prisoner? Where do I find these?
RT> Not to worry, that case is well in hand. By the way, did my Netmail
RT> find its way to you?
Yes! My *first* net mail! How spiffy to send private msgs. At the Health
Ctr. I told you about, my sysop lets me have it free. I think they're
underwritten by the dept. of health or something.
And...Here's my report: I _talked_ to Kim! Wonderful lady. Just as you
implied. She's sending me something, and I'm to send her info on Kriseya.
Said she'd help me however she could, and to pick up the phone to call any-
time. She also said lots of good things about you, Rick...something like,
"He'll fight for a turtle or a person..." You're not an environmentalist
too, are you? We're a strange brand: Christian environmentalists. Both
sides view us as oddities. Very grateful for Kim's No.! Very.

Totally noted. You should see my list of to do's after reading this post!
It has been a month (when we moved here) that I last saw my desktop, and
the path to my desk is now defined by file stacks, books & papers. Ay,ay,ay.
I bless you, Rick....
