In one of the articles "voice  mail for the homeless" was mentioned and
suggested. Isn't that a contradiction in terms. How will someone who is
homeless receive e-mail. Where s will they have access to a computer. Will
neighborhoods trust the homeless to use their computers.  I wonder who will
pay for this service. I can't imagine having homeless people walking into a
school where there are young children to access their e-mail.
     If they are to have access to e-mail will libraries welcome them with
open arms?
 I can't  picture the agencies which provide meals and lodging for the
homeless having  e-mail capabilities????
