True to our mission statement "Thinking
globally, working locally" here is a glimpse of one evening spent in a
computer lab on a steep cobblestone street in Tepoztlan, Morelos, Mexico.
Walking uphill from my Mexican family's home I pass the murals posted on
these pages. Just past the mural is the little orange computer lab...with
about 10 computers. Small space. Randy, the young man pictured in the
previous photo, sits in a tight little area behind a glass case filled
with odds and ends related to studies...pens, CDs, pads of paper. On the
wall behind him hangs his guitar.
One night I was quietly working, eyes
glued to the monitor and the dulcet tunes of guitar music and quiet
singing filled the space. Around me at the other computers were others,
equally glued to their monitors! Children with headsets, young men and
women, their babies on their laps. A quiet, happy hum.
