Sara, I was interested in your comment about your work with ninth graders and
was wondering how one developed an on list in the high schools.  Is the
original
work done on-line or is it a hands on development option.  Also, is there a
"lurking" capablibility that teachers can use to be sure their correspondence
does not get out of hand.  When the topic of censorship on the web arises, I'm
sure those responsible for what goes out have a means to know what actually
goes out before it reaches it's final destination.  With certain age groups
the
temptation to pust the boundaries is real.
