SCN: websites to feature

[Lorraine Pozzi]

Rod -

I talked (briefly) to folks at Garfield. - They have quite a nice
computer lab now - with staff.

Laurie Chisholm is the new director - used to be at Miller CC.
I think she would welcome some SCN volunteer involvement - at 
least she was very amenable when she was at Miller (which has 
pretty crummy equipment and often not working).

I don't have much time right now - but would be interested in
the future.  Also - I think the IMC might be interested.  In
fact - they got some money from a grant - and now some of the
community groups that signed on as a courtesy are scratching
their heads and saying, "What the hell can we DO at the IMC?"

Stephanie has been rehabbing old computers and installing Linux -
don't know if this would be a major problem for using some 
space at the IMC but maybe worth a try.  They have been doing
some GREAT work!

It's kind of odd that while both the Internet and community-
building are based on networking and sharing, SCN seems to be
in the cheese-stands-alone mode.  But of course I have not been
involved for quite a while - this may be a totally false
assumption. 

For anybody interested - the Port of Seattle is in the throes
of "privatization" - aka union-busting.  I'm doing some volunteer
work for LELO - which I had hoped at one time to have on SCN -
it's at www.lelo.org - doing major community outreach, mostly 
to labor.  But I see this as a citizen/taxpayer issue and 
a women's issue as well.  The fun-loving bunch who brought us
the WTO - and still don't get it.
