Dr Jaiteh

I remember asking  Katim that summer about the new government in Banjul . As we were all trying to find who was who then and checking on loved ones, he shared some the emails he got with others about the situation back home and voila - the list grew and grew by word of mouth . I remember how he helped me join in the mail group step by step I had an erols account and the compartibility issues were just huge for my limited I T knowledge . His patience was unique for a novice in the internet arena like me (then)- spent over an hour and half on the telphone until I was set, now I have learnt a lot and actually benefited technology wise .Thanks  Dr Katim Taurey

It was Mr loum who finally put the cream on the cake filling many logistic and gaps with the university  and finally securing the st johns edu as the permanent host for gambia - List of contributors . Webster  has since then moved to the east coast from the sate of Washington U.

I think we were twenty five folks at the begining - or maybe less!!

tempus fugit - time flies !!!!10 years already- wow !

Sarian Loum Thanks also wherever you may be .
