450515 -    2.  We talked a bit over lunch on Wednesday about reading books,
450516 -        and you seemed to say you like a "good story." [...reported on

450519 -         ..
450520 -    3.  Recently Alice Burks was interviewed on CSPAN to discuss her

450523 -        research on 960304, ref SDS 1 4Q9N...] Sounds like the book
450524 -        presents social and cultural aspects of computers, without a
450525 -        lot of technical jargon.
450527 -         ..

450533 -        set out in NWO. ref OF 12 O64H
450535 -         ..
450536 -    6.  Reading in conventional book format may shed light on our
