I HAVE COME A LONG WAY #7

I learnt to type on a manual typewriter thirty years ago and not long after electric typewriters were introduced which, I never had the need to master. Library catalogues consisted of cards and a lot of clerical work was carried out by a library assistant, so the need to learn was not there. Along comes the computer and was very reluctant to learn this technology but did as I needed to and could see the benefits. Now we have the Internet which is another advancement that enhances my job and something else to master. I am enthralled with what there is to learn on this course and it is slowly dawning on me that I will have a need for this knowledge, so am very grateful for this tool in which to navigate uncharted waters.

It is fascinating this business of information technology. I was last week trying to work out the RSS thing - but where do we get the time!!! Anyway, I think you are doing a great job Fran and leading the forefront presently in the Mitchell Group.
