[Dixie]

Yes, I think that is what is meant.  Terry, Just FYI Kleenex is spelled with
a K.

I actually could give the steps for a cleanex box, by way of e-mail, like
Greg suggested.  
Then people could write me back with questions.  The subject would be ---
cleanex box, for what ever design of cleanex box we are doing.  Is this what
you all mean.

As I mentioned to some of you, this is a great group and good things will
come from our bad week.  Looks like this is happening.  New ideas from
several members.

Let's keep the fresh ideas flowing and work on making them a part of our
group.

suggesting we change ANYTHING! But, maybe we have become to focused on our
wonderful and valuable phone service for classes. There is a need and always
will be a need for this kind of enteraction. But, quite frankly, it does not
meet the needs of everyone. A person has to have long distance access in an
affordable way or skype. You have to show up at the designated time even if
that's in the middle of the night where you are. You have to work at the
pace of all the other students. And, there are many more comments I have
read here!

many cases? Why isn't a classroom a part of it? What I'd like to propose is
that we all Me included start labeling the message very carefully and start
doing more how-to stuff right here! If I'm not interested in a topic, I
simply can skip those posts. An example of this is that it has been
suggested I start some crochet instruction. If I take the time to write a
coherent lesson plan and explanation which I would need for a phone class, I
can post that here. Then, if you want to do it, you can give it a try,
e-mail a question for all to see and learn from, I respond, and on and on
till we all learn. Somebody can read that anytime. If somebody comes along a
year from now and wants to read that material, they can search for a
specific Subject and read all about it. I learn to teach. I learn to write a
Good lesson plan. I give of myself and not just take from the group. I
freely give that instruction because I want to and not as a job. It's my fun
time and not a professional time that I owe anybody. These are a few of the
benefits.

won't work?
