Perhaps this is not the most appropriate newsgroup to post this
query to... but the folks that read this group seem to have answers
to everything!
Today Phil Donahue featured a man buy he name of Stephen Roberts who
travels across the US on a bicycle that is totally connected to
the rest of the world via various computers. He spoke at length
about his activity on Internet and how he is never lonely, keeps
in touch with the world etc. by his on-board computers.
He spoke of a book he wrote entitled _Computing Across America_.
My questions are...1) Has anyone seen and read this book?
2) Does anyone know where I can get a copy?
and most important...
3) does anyone have his internet address? (He kept talking about his
connection to San Diego)
B.T.W. This was a terribly interesting show... I never knew of
this guy's existence... anyone else heard of him?
