Dear Group:

Yahoogroups bring like-minded people together for sharing, caring and
encouraging. Sometimes, in the process of
communicating concerns, solutions to problems are discovered. My life
with epilepsy was transformed for the better because
I sought second opinions from qualified medical professionals online.
I asked a lot of folks a lot of questions. Making such
inquiries is what helped facilitate my becoming drug-free after 34
years on medication. I now have my seizure disorder under
control and am enjoying a better quality of life.

The Internet can teach all of us a lot more than we currently know.
Of course, that's pretty obvious. What's no so obvious is
that mulitmedia to your desktop from the Internet could prove helpful
in this process. What's more, you don't need to access
your e-mail or a web site to make this happen. A free software
program brings it to your desktop while you're online doing
other things. This free software program works in the background
while you are online. It will even update the presentation
for you if that is something that needs to be done. And, it will do
this for you automatically. But, that's not the best part. In
my opinion, the best part is you can actually view the multimedia
presentation at your convenience, offline. You do not have
to remain online for this program to work. That's a real blessing for
people who have dial-up Internet access.

How do I know all this? I design multimedia-scripted CD's for a
living. The CD's I design are primarily for keynote
speakers - members of the National Speakers Association. Like many
designers, I set up an Internet Channel to showcase
my presentations freely to the public. All one has to do to see a
designer's presentation is subscribe to their channel. This
also is done free-of-charge. Anyone wishing to subscribe to an
Internet Channel should download the free software
( www.scala.com/iplay ) and then take a look at the Channel Index (
www.scala.com/channels/index.html ). My channel is
#59 on the list.

I bring this matter to the attention of our group because I would like
to expand the scope of my Internet Channel to include
medical programs and procedures which are transforming peoples lives
for the better - including treatments for epilepsy. This
is not something I can accomplish overnight. But, it can be done over
a period of time if medical professionals have an
interest. I personally believe multimedia is get way to educate the
public - which is one of the reasons why I am invoved in
the industry that promotes it. If you know of doctors or clinics
which would have an interest in this type of communication
with the public, please have them contact me at lamar@....
