| Description: |
The Countdown To Millennium Project was designed to attract novices to technology by using a subject that most interests people everywhere--themselves. Southeastern Ohio towns have important cultural histories. Many of our senior residents were witnesses to events --the Millfield Mine Disaster, the birth of the United Mineworkers Union, the speeches of suffragette Frances Dana Gage, the legacy of numerous underground railroad sites, to name just a few-- that changed the nation’s history. Yet, as time passes, their stories are fading away. |
