Please excuse me for posting this to everyone, but the
addresses listed just ret
urns my letters!


Charles,

We have been very successful with a project co-sponsored
by the State Department of Education called Thomas
Jefferson on-Line. The DOE for Virginia sponsors a
network called the Public Education Network and it
addresses all sorts of educational needs and projects
throughout the state. In the history section, they have
historical figures (like TJ and Woodrow Wilson - both VA
presidents) who answer letters written to them in the first
person. TJ is by far the most popular correspondant! I
serve as TJ in these correspondences.

If you have any other questions, please E-mail me directly.

Robin
