Terry--

Here's a list of selected Web sites that I maintain. It's far less
extensive than my bookmark file (which includes Larry London's...and
thus is about as long as Bob Dole's face when the cameras aren't
on). I keep this list mainly for farmers, citizens, students, and
folks new to the Net who are interested in sustag but for whom link
surfing generally leads to wipeout and occasional drowning.

One of my main complaints about the Web is that many home pages are
designed according to the "I link therefore I am" school of Web
Presence, where one is often passing thru but never arriving
anywhere. There is an unmistakeable Dharma Bums cyberZen to this
that Ti Jean Kerouac woulda loved, but sometimes people need
information. :^)

Best of luck.

Michele

PS--I invoke the proofreading gods.
