Dear Steve,


Since we last discussed

Communication Metrics on Sep 22, 1997,
ref c, this capability has been implemented on the
Internet to accomplish the

paperless office
objective.





Turner
expressed interest in this technology when we met on April 5, 1996.  Intel
reported in April 1991 through an interview published by

Byte magazine that technology to support
a "paperless office" would be very useful, but by 1995 had

given up
on this objective. Now, putting Communication Metrics on the
Internet, solves the problem.




You can test the increased speed and accuracy of getting needed
information from the Communication Metrics "Knowledge Space" environment,
by clicking on the links in this
letter. There is a

web site
that explains the underlying concept of deliverying "ingelligence" anytime,
anywhere.  This increases the

cost savings
from using Communication Metrics
that was reported by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, submitted to you in my

letter
on October 10, 1997.




Sincerely,


THE WELCH COMPANY
