Re: SEC: Revoked Internet Privileges

[Ken Umbach <kumbach@UNLIMITED.NET>]

Good points.  On this note, some folks might find value in a piece I have
done on how to do a research paper ... focusing on old-fashioned,
paper-based methods.  (I originally wrote it when that was basically the
only option ... but have updated to at least make reference to the
Internet.)   The title is "Low-Tech Research in a High-Tech World: How to Do
Research Without the Internet and Even Without a Word Processor."

It can be found, in Microsoft Word 2.0 format, at
http://member.unlimited.net/~kumbach/lowtech.doc.

If you find it useful, you may reproduce it under the following terms (from
the Preface):

"Feel free to print a copy of this manual for yourself or for co-workers,
fellow students, family members, or friends to whom it might be useful.  All
I ask is that the manual be printed or otherwise distributed in its
entirety, unchanged, uncut, and including this notice."

By the way, I would welcome comments on the thing ...

Regards,

Ken Umbach
