E-mail from TV-ERA that Raven forwarded to me this morning. I like how someone says something positive, and Raven takes the liberty of editing out the positive comment about me when she posted it on the thread. Below is the complete Private Message. To: scanshift From: RavenCrazy Friday, Apr 30 1999 7:38AM ET Fane - Thank you again. I wrote Eddie last night and got this reply. I think this is the only email address I have for him.

Yes,you could say that we need tapes but I don't think that they'll do us any good since it's the problem of the USA standard that differs from ours. Now about the hardware, I quite agree with Fane because of the prices here. They are too high and we do seem to have a cash problem and have needs for, not just hardware but computers as well. The fastest computer that we are using here is a Pentium 166 MMX with a HDD of 1.7 GB, 32 MB RAM and it's only got left 130 MB on the HDD and the other computers (2 of them) are 486-s. If you could get us a laptop that'd be great because most of the work with registering the refugees around here is done by handwrite. We have modem problems as well since we have an ISDN line being installed and our modem is 28800 bps. Anything else that you could help us with would mean a great help to us (a sound card would make all this work seem less tiring and we have got lots of work around). About the tools I think that we can handle that problem pretty easily (there are enough tools around here). I think that what you're doing is really great. Wish you luck and all the best Eddie P.S. I apologize if there's any mistake on my written English and in the behalf of "Mother Theresa" thank you again At 20:56 4/29/99 PDT, you wrote: >Dear Edmond ("Eddie"?) > >I talked with Fane Lozeman by phone tonight.
