Thank you for your interest in Building Homes of Our Own, the
interactive CD-ROM game geared towards Middle School students.
www.homesofourown.org



Your registration did not contain a school email address or the name of
a recognized institution therefore, we are restricted from sending a
free copy of the game.



Because the game is a public service initiative to help school systems
our grant underwriters require that we screen all requests. Our charter
is to reach school buildings with multiple grade classrooms.



If you would like information on how your local library might receive
one free copy for local lending, please have a public Librarian contact
us for details.



If you believe that you have received this message in error, please
return email us with ALL of the following information:

* The name of your school

* Student enrollment

* Grades levels of the school

* School email address




Once again, this is a PC game only; there is no Mac version at this
time.

The games minimum system requirements are: Windows 98 OS or better, 233
MHz Pentium II, 64 MB RAM; 8 X CD-ROM.

Hi Dee,
Their grant writers require them to "screen" recipients? Hogwash! They're
post screening. But, rule of thumb ... never give more than is requested. (They
can however, freely expand on the info that you do give. I've recently been
getting mail addressed to Dean Gregory <g>.)

I put "other" for grade level, gave them our school name (GG Academy - Gifted
and Gorgeous <g>, renamed from Gregory Girls by my three strongly humor
ridden daughters <g>), and I used the same "residential" address for both home and
school. We'd received it quickly, maybe all of three weeks???

Submitting another registration application with only required information
will likely do the trick. I'd ignore their request for more. Student enrollment
is NOT on their application as they indicated on their subsequent request for
more info.

Good Luck!
Debbie
