I would send the text to the list if susan harris gave me permission but i am not expecting her to do so because as I understand it that would be pushing list policy beyond the limits. the story author really did manage to capture the essential importance of what Tsering Gyaltsen Sherpa for the sherpas of the khumbu is doing which is something far different and more important than just a cyber cafe at base camp. -- ======================================================== The COOK Report on Internet, 431 Greenway Ave, Ewing, NJ 08618 USA (609) 882-2572 (phone & fax) cook@cookreport.com Subscription info & prices at http://cookreport.com/subscriptions.shtml Summary of content for 10 years at http://cookreport.com/past_issues.shtml VoIP Enterprise Adopt & Open Spectrum January Feb 2003 107 pages available at http://cookreport.com/11.11.shtml ========================================================
Hello; I don't know if anyone has noticed this, but News.Google appends a &partner=Google variable into New York Times URL's so that news.google readers can get NYT stories without registration. Another reason to use News.Google. This should work http://www.nytimes.com/2003/01/23/technology/circuits/23sher.html?ex=1043902800& en=d811bb662d65fdc4&ei=5062&partner=GOOGLE For a different take, see http://www.detnews.com/2003/technology/0301/20/technology-64000.htm Regards Marshall Eubanks On Thursday, January 23, 2003, at 08:41 AM, Gordon Cook wrote:
