Hemlock Holmes here. I intercepted a bit of email about the character
known as 'Uncle Bob'. Apparently, somebody was asking questions about
him, and I happen to get the answers.

> Bio Info:  Who is Uncle Bob anyway?

   Uncle Bob is a drunk who spends his money on cheap wine, and hangs out
at the library where he surfs the Internet until they throw him out.

> History of involvement with the Internet:

   He started surfing the Net when he was sober one day three years ago.
He hasn't been sober since.

> Why you started Uncle Bob's Kids' Page:

   Uncle Bob started the kids' page as community service so he wouldn't
have to go to jail for flashing in public.

> Other projects on-line:

   He says he wants to open a virtual massage parlor.

> Vision for the future of the Internet:

   Uncle Bob has halucinations instead of visions.

> Relative importance of international exchanges for children and adults:

   He says it depends on whose relatives they are, and he wants to know
what he can get in exchange for his kids?

> Thanks so much.

   You're welcome.  Just don't tell Uncle Bob I told you this.

So there you have, the truth about 'Uncle Bob'. Who would have guessed
it? But it goes to show you that people aren't always what you think they
are.
