Here's some interesting sites: http://www.emule.com/poetry/ The Poetry Archives...over 3745 classical poems by 145 different authors, dating from the mid-Twentieth Century back...AND a lively and intriguing discussion board. http://www.photoaspects.com/chesil/ - Chesil's Favourite Poetry. Another wonderful archive of work from a devouted and scholarly gentleman with a leaning toward English works. http://www.americanwriters.org The companion website for C-SPAN's brilliant American Writers, a journey through history series, an examination of 138 authors and their works in a historical context starting with William Bradford and The Mayflower Compact and running through 1975. Site includes author bios, description of featured works, discussion boards, chats, a book club, and teaching kits. If you love the written word, this is a great place to explore! And I urge all teachers to consider using this program in school...all levels from grammar to high school are currently studying along. http://www1.btwebworld.com/quote-unquote/index.htm - Quote/Unquote. A fascinating site which offers quotes that have forgotten their sources as it were. The origins of the quotes posted are a tough chore to unravel. Many of the quotes on the "hard' list have been on the board for years! But solve one with a legitimate, verifiable source, and the gentleman who runs the site will send the solution to the seeker, give you a nice mention in the newsletter, send you a thanks, and remove the quote you "nailed" from the board (thus ending the forlorn journey of yet another source searcher). But careful, it's addictive!

Tried that, Ann, and got a message I've never seen before: "Your broswer has sent incorrect information to the server.

Thanks for that link, Rhuby. I'm not sure if I could understand some of this if I simply heard someone say it.
