Home = Education Conference Photo Album
Page 2
Dateline: 8/28/99
By Ann Zeise
For two hours, during the lunch break at the Home=Education
Conference in Sacramento on Saturday, August 21, 1999, about
30 self-described "online buddies" and "web wonks"
got to meet each other f2f (face-to-face) irl (in real life).
Lisa Bugg and Sue Patterson announced the formation of the new
National Home Education Network
and explained the various committees. We all introduced ourselves,
talked about our kids a bit, and what were our favorite email
lists, chats, message board forums and websites. Afterwards we
broke out into smaller groups of old friends and new. I took
photos at this time. Funny of the day: someone complained that
there just wasn't enough hours in the day to get all her email
read. Another piped up: "Are you still trying to do housework?"
Saturday Online Buddies' Lunch
& NHEN Announcement
Michael Arighi & Lisa
Bugg
Michael,
an HSC member and homeschool father, asks Lisa
Bugg how he might help with the new
National Home Education
Network. I had shanghied Michael in
from an earlier session after recognizing him as a fellow UC
Santa Cruz alumni.

Three old-time AOL buddies have a lively
conversation when they met:
Here's DAB7580, DcnAileen and

Online Buddies
Buddies broke out in smiles and hand
gestures when they finally met in real life. I need some help
identifying these folks. That's PSoroosh with the long blond
hair on the left, and I believe that's DAB on the right Sheila
(Hsmick) and Liz Davis are chatting in the upper left.
