[school-discuss] Linux applications _you_ use in school

[Helen <aujeffery@yahoo.com>]

I have received a lot of this Linux Information from your school which I don't really understand becuse what I requested for is different from the reply I am getting. Really I will want to be one of your Linux student if only you will send me your application form or fax me on this number 234-1-2625947 (Mobile) 08023283793 or send me a reply on my box.

Thanks.

Helen.
