Your assistance in >this important project is greatly appreciated. Just a short note that HcUG has been benifiting from all this over the past years. It is difficult to get disabled to write but this is slowly changing and some of us have benefited from the information exchange. As a psychologist also I see growth in clients who have the stamina to overcome the initial learning difficulties and to master skills in telecommunication techniques. I have written a paper along the line of remote networking and electronic self-help for the disabled. We have followed Butch suggestion strongly that publicity is important to make telecommunication a common thing for the disabled and to educate the public. Over the past 1 year many individual projects like this have taken off in HonG Kong. It will grow and I hope our involvement will be permanent once we can get funding and people to manned it. Hope this help and keep up the momentum........ T.K. Kang (HcUG BBS Sysop) >()< "Please HcUG ...
