Pramod gets through on the phone

September 17, 2007

Dear All:I had talked to David two days ago on the phone. He said that they are getting used to. However, there was some problem in making the Laptops work. However, the phone line was bad and it got cut. All the parents, Tom and Donna, please remain calm - things are fine. I request that Narayan goes to Sarkuwa one of these days and asks David and Zach to write about their experiences. Please tell David and Zack that the computers do not need any password and ask to simply hit enter when they ask for password. If that does not work please tell us. I will send instruction on how to overcome that. I will add Anup Pradhanang, a bright young Electrical Engineer from Kathmandu who works with me here in Canada. He will be able to come up with solutions to technical problems much better than myself. [Note to Anup: When you send email to sarkuwa@cffn.ca, you will be able to send email to everyone in this group.]Narayan, it would also be highly appreciated if you could ask any other needs they have and what is their degree of comfort (ask them to answer in the scale of 1 to 10, where 10 being at home with Mom when they were babies and 1 the worst there can be!) .Let them write all in a computer then copy their writing from their computer to a USB Drive (pen drive). Then kindly send that through email. That will be highly appreciated. Please tell Megh and all helpful people of Sarkuwa that I will pay through my genuine deeds for the villagers for all the kindness and friendship and warmth they provide to David and Zachary. It became hard to connect on the phone as too many trials makes one brief connection. Sincerely,Pramod
