To Mari, Joe and others who have read my inquiry and responded,

Thank you Mari!  This is the perfect solution!  

I would like to thank publicly JoeMot@azstarnet; he thought enough to
contact Ruby at Internet Direct to see if they could help.

Internet Direct very kindly offered to help this woman and her daughter 
during their period in Tucson.  This kind of consideration and supportive 
attitude is one of many reasons I opened an account with ID and have 
maintained it.

I am recommending to my friends to use Aztec while in Tucson.  Internet 
Direct is a commercial entity and hopefully by making use of Aztec, this 
will save Indirect some resources AND that these resources might be 
available to someone else without other options if needed in the future.

By making use of Aztec, it will help keep net access less intimidating 
for these women, both of whom are brand new users.  The interface they 
will see on the screen will be the familiar one they are learning with. 
And..... the goal is to make communication with friends and family at 
home as easy, convenient, and cheap as possible.

When this difficult time is behind them,  I'm SURE they will have become 
Net Addicts craving full access to the net.  You can be certain they will 
remember the generous offer by Internet Direct.
