"The goal of Child CyberSEARCH is to help locate and prevent missing
children by making timely information accessible to the public though
the use of leading-edge network technologies." I became involved with
Child CyberSEARCH when I began canvassing door to door for them.
"RMS Titanic, Inc. was granted salvor-in-possession rights to the wreck
of the Titanic by a United States Federal Court order in
1994, reconfirmed again in 1996. The court award includes the exclusive
rights to own objects recovered from the Titanic wreck site
and the exclusive rights to photograph Titanic. The
company was formed for the purpose of exploring the wreck and
surrounding ocean areas; obtaining oceanographic material and scientific
data and using the data and retrieved artifacts for historical
verification, scientific education and public awareness."
"If your interest is Titanic and the White Star Line, the

"Pegasus Mail is an electronic mail system for use with Novell NetWare
(versions 2.15A and later), and on standalone systems using the WINSOCK
TCP/IP interface. It is a full-fledged mailer, one of its more unusual
characteristics being that it is freeware - not shareware, but 'free'.
You can use it without charge, restriction or obligation on as many
servers and machines as you wish." I use Pegasus Mail for my E-mail.
Not only is it completely free, but it has one of the best interfaces
I've ever seen. In my opinion, Pegasus Mail is the best E-mail
client currently available.
I do some Internet chatting through one of four public access terminals
at the James McConnell Memorial Library, the headquarters of the Cape
Breton Regional Library. "The mission of the Cape Breton Regional
Library is to assist persons with their life-long learning needs; to
introduce children to books; to serve as a clearinghouse of information;
to provide sources of ideas to stimulate the imagination; to act as a
cultural resource for Cape Breton: and to give comfort and pleasure
through recreational reading." The head librarian is
Ian MacIntosh.
"Our school is one of the largest and most prominent high schools in

Cape Breton Regional Municipality, Nova Scotia. We are a part of the
Cape Breton-Victoria Regional School Board. This Web site is intended
to provide you with an introduction to our school and to keep people up

"Students come to UCCB for our unique vision of University College

programs that combine liberal arts and sciences with engineering,
technology and trades traditions. When students arrive, they find a
faculty that is recognized internationally for their expertise and who
take pride in laying the foundation for a 'professor as mentor'
relationship with their students." This is the college where I took two
years of Business Technology, Management.
"Located in Cape Breton, in beautiful Westmount. Constructed in 1967,
MacLennan has a rich history of academic and extra-curricular

"Greenpeace was born in 1971 when members of the Don't Make A Wave
Committee in Vancouver, Canada, renamed their organization to better
proclaim their purpose: to create a GREEN and PEACEful world." I once
worked as a canvasser for Greenpeace Canada here in Sydney.
