In September\, 1989 \, Ed was a principal at a Career and Technical Education (CTE) school. He was visiting with parents whose students were starting at UIUC. They bega n to describe a way to make a local phone call on their TRS80 home compute r that would allow them to use their computer to send a letter to their st udent at UIUC - free of charge\, much less than the cost of a LONG DISTANC E PHONE CALL. They called this "thing" electronic mail. Everyone in the ro om shook their head and asked\, "Why?" and the overwhelming answer was\, " Who knows?". Electronic mail was about as useless as "Pong."

Septe mber\, 1989 was nearly a full year BEFORE Tim Berners-Lee of the Universit y of Oxford began developing the "protocols" for Hypertext Markup Language " that lead to the development of "Mosaic\," the first web browser\, that was developed at the NCSA at UIUC and released on January 23\, 1993 - a da y in which Ed was attending an Internet Conference at "The Chancellor" pre sented by NCSA. At the end of the day\, at the final General Session of th e conference\, they displayed "Mosaic". Everyone was in awe. It was so muc h better than the "green screens" to which they were accustomed when using FTP and Pine. The rest IS history. Ed's talk at the MSTE Friday Lunch Sym posium will recount what happened next with MSTE and that CTE school.
