Ah now...this is much better!

Not "it's impossible" but "How can it be accomplished"...

As to the various steps...you solve the one about "why do I want to do this?"
and all the others will fall into place. (This is why I posted my personal
experience and that of my SysOp friend....motivation was all it took!) I think
in the third world education via netmail/email might be a viable motivation.
Even though I'm not getting any credits for reading news, I've found it very
educational, and I suspect a formal education scheme could be very successful
where needed. You have to find out what the people perceive as their need, and
not leap to Euro-centric conclusions, though...
