[Fwd: Digital Talking Circle]

Fri Apr 14 13:35:16 CDT 2000

  We have the Chautauqua video here at NCSA, as well as an update version
that includes newer Access Grid materials.  The Media Group here at NCSA
could make a copy, or copies as needed.  We also have a jaz disk(which
belongs to ANL and I need to return. Sorry!) full of Chautauqua and Grid
images.
