>I have recently joined this list again, and would like

>to discuss and share information about the need for

>what I call an English-Mobile, a mobile computer

>lab/library.

>Although I do not teach ESL in a workplace setting,

>I'm certain that there is a large demand for classes

>in many companies and factories which cannot be met

>under normal circumstances.

>At the same time, there is a growing number of FREE

>computer courses that could be made available to

>various work places by means of a mobile lab, which

>could also lend books, audio and video tapes.

>It stands to reason that many companies would be

>interested in providing some funding for such a

>project.

>Grants are also available.

>I have authored one free internet course,

>www.pumarosa.com, and its success is a good indication

>of the practicality of a mobile lab.

>Thank you,

>Paul Rogers
