Thank you for providing the motivation, as audiences and cohorts do. This poem was written on NotePad then copy and pasted to a Simple Text file on the new machine. I then had to build the network with the other already networked between them 2 old mac IIci machines that were my e-home to date, in order to get it over on "Michele in Full Color", the senior machine in my household, the one with the direct phone tap to the internet via my USR Courier modem. However, as soon as I will find time, I will have all three connect by the same modem using a little share-your-one-modem-on-your-network box from Addonics that is now hardware-hooked up and glowing green, awaiting final configuration. Green in port. Green is for free passage. I have also distributed the poem to the Mac IIci known as "laura" (after one of the two sister protagonists in Christina Rossetti's *long* poem _Goblin Market_ -- in Agnieszka's Dowry printed and on-line issue no. 4). So... funny stuff :). Tonight's poem now lives on 4 computers -- three at home, all at the moment connected to each other and sharing their disks, and on enteract.com, where I am editing this file -- thus *now* as you read this, accross the planet & on. Cordially, -- Marek and now I will play some piano instead of geeking and making a romantic fool of meself
