PROTECTING YOUR KIDS ONLINE AND OFF (PART 1)

[Avery Todd]

List,

   I have a post from a "Tourbus" newsletter I'm on which might be of
interest to all you with kids, grandkids and computers. It's a little
long to post on the list but I've received permission to forward it to
anyone interested. Below is a "blurb" or two from it. There are quite
a few sites to go to and learn more about this problem and what you can
do to help protect 'your' kids.
   I'm going out of town Tuesday morning for a day or two but I'll get
to any requests when I return.

                                         than under it.
