“Let's go down one more , push your enter key…” says a young man helping senior citizens work a web site on the Internet.
David Lansdale has found a way to light up the lives of the elder. He gets them wired to the Internet. “If you hit your enter key , it will bring up this particular e-mail….”
Pauline Allen is one of those who have started using the Internet. “I thought I was through with life; I was ready for a rocking chair, because I was 86 years old. And I haven't found the rocking chair yet. ” “You found the key-board?” asks the reporter. “That's right, I found the key-board.”
The average age of Lansdale's students is around 68. All are in nursing or assisted care homes. He used family relationships to introduce them to the World Wide Web.
David Lansdale says, “Here they are in California; the family are in New York. The chance to connect, to cross the time and space, is very good chance to them. ”
“I hear you are so beautiful. ” Lillian Shier writes an e-mail to a newborn great granddaughter. Working with one another, the seniors learn as a group. They learn to master the Internet and to overcome what Lansdale calls the maladies of the institutionalized: loneliness , helplessness , and loss of memory.
Mary Harvey says, “Bingo just doesn't interest me. But this does, believe me, this does. ”
Ninety-four-year-old Ruth Hyman is a star pupil and instructor. She says , “When I send a letter to my grandchildren , and great granddaughter , they hang it up in their offices , just as I used to hang their drawings on my refrigerator. Ha, ha!”

Dixon Moorehouse says , “I just wish I were 15 years old and getting to learn all this. ” The seniors call their weekly meeting Monday Night Live. And many say the meetings have given them new life.
