               "keeper of the vision" - abbe don

     In the beginning...

          was a boy in a blanket in the cold cold chicago       [Image]
          winter
          when there was thunder, he was on the roof waiting for
          lightening
          when there was homework due, he was on computers waiting for
          downloads and information space

     Then suddenly...

          in a swarthmore student lounge littered with plastic cuplids
          stamped with cigarette butts, he was reading the tail end of
          his new york times subscription, and read that very thing
          that rendered newsprint black fingers obsolete, john markoff
          wrote about mosaic and the web and a new information space

     And finally...

          in rooms with drawers, and rooms on wheels, in states above
          and below the mason dixon line, he toiled to make a portion
          of that information space reflect his brain.
          daily, diddley, did he toil, oh lordy he toil.
          he toil 'til his hands done near broke
          and that toil done strain his relationships.
          and that toil done make him work, done found him job
          excuse to pontificate for groups
          to extend his need for attention to national media,
          international glowing bodies of colour light and glass

          and some done take example from this toil, like making self
          online
          certainly young rheingold found some excitement therein

          and so was he a first eminds employee or consultant, back in
          1995

          finally brought full on board as a goading webwise friend who
          just recently realized that highest use of these powers;
          company resources and other electric minds to make a new form
          of pedagogy, at first centered around technology but like a
          door ajar, waiting for the edgy push of new students,
          students who can use computers to mirror and pool their own
          information spaces.

          that's why he's here - to encourage howard's rabbinical
          instincts.
          and cuz the other people are rabbis in their own right.
          and cuz it shure beats skool.
