| Introduction | I've been on the Internet since June, 1994, on a Commodore-128 D computer, through a terminal connection, with the text-only web browser Lynx. I've had a web page since 1995. It was written by hand on the Commodore computer. I'm now a PC-user, and can even see graphics on the web! I started working with homeschoolers around 1980. I did a lot of tutoring and got a degree in Elementary Education from West Chester University. In 1992, The L.P.H. Resource Center started in Pottstown, PA, where I taught a large group of homeschoolers, mostly in 4th-8th grade. In 1998, I moved the classes I used to teach there onto the Internet, and they've been going on over the internet ever since then. I've been going to the Tridentine Mass/traditional Latin Mass/Extraordinary Rite ever since it began in Philadelphia in 1989. I'm the organist when there is a Missa Cantata at the Tridentine Mass in Norristown, PA; otherwise I'm usually serving the Mass. I've been going to the Benedictine Monastery at Clear Creek in Oklahoma usually for about a week at a time 2 or 3 times a year since 2001. |
