Well, Continuing Ed is a possiblity, eh? Seems to me that
Continuing Ed might be the way to go at all levels. There might be a way
to involve senior citizens that doesn't involve college credit. (God.
Would you just _kill_ to have the 'net if you were stuck in a nursing
home, or what?) I suspect that it would be fairly easy to find
elementary-aged kids who'll participate just because it's fun.
Anybody else got ideas?
