Jurassic Park Thanks!

[geojbb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (Bret Bennington)]

On behalf of Gail Vitale and the rest of the science teachers at Memorial
Jr High School in New York I want to thank everyone who took the time to
respond to their question about errors in the movie 'Jurassic Park'.  I can
assure you that they were amazed and excited by the number of postings (I
provided them with a printout of each message) and by the almost global
diversity of people who responded.  If you have done nothing else, you have
opened the eyes of several teachers to the enormous potential of the
internet to bring the world directly into the classroom.  Regarding the
movie, they now have more material to work with then they ever imagined
they would - comments, web sites, book review citations, even a couple of
rather lengthy essays!  Again, thanks for everything!

Ms Vitale promises to compile a list of your comments regarding the movie.
Also, we will post a summary of their 'Jurassic Park' classroom project
when it is finished - to let you know how it all worked out.

Cheers to all!
