Youth Tech is cool! There's much to do, but I think they could add some new features, from time to time! And I just want to say 'Hi' to everybody reading this newsletter too!

Concerning Geek Humor... I dont really think that the people who submit to this part of the newsletter want to be refered to as geeks. Therefore stop calling them geeks (since i never submited "geek humor" to this newsletter i am not a "geek" and don't interpret this as a submission to the letter just as an opinion). I am sure many people are offended by this horrible title. Please change it to something less offensive to the so-called "geeks." Perhaps a name like "joke section" or "funny land" yould be more appropriate to the readers!!
Dear LandSandD,
Geek Humor is only the title of the article, and isn't meant to offend any of our readers. We hope that the readers will realize that the word "Geek" does not apply to them (unless of course, they'd like it to!).

Thanx for the letter, but I have a few things to say about it. Please, for me and other 16 year olds, place more stuff that interests 16 year olds and older. If these letters are being written and sent by teens like me as you all claim it is, make me believe it. Thanx for the letter, I really appreciate the time you spent writing and sending it to me. :-)
Dear Swatch1027,
We're always looking for suggestions and feedback. You can send feedback at anytime to the screenname YTCCNEWS. Thanks!

=====poll results=================================================
What would you feed your computer for Thanksgiving?
By YTCCBrain@AOL.COM
========================================================================
Last Thursday we had Thanksgiving... mmm good... we also asked you to take a poll. The poll was "What do you think your computer would eat on Thanksgiving and why?" Now I'm here to give you some of the responses I got!
Here's a very funny one by Kelsoola@aol.com
"I think my computer, Anne, would eat a lavishly traditional meal. She really is quite Victorian, you know. She would hold a large party and wear a long, elegant evening dress and pearls."
Another funny one by Zinger6600@aol.com
"My computer.....a mac....doesn't like NORMAL Thanxgiving food. After all, it's a mac. It would eat....A MCDONALDS BIC MAC! That's because it thinks it is the best an wants to eliminate all other MACS!"
And another humorous one by Melichior@aol.com
"I would feed my Computer some cookies because they'd be just like Mother [board] used to make."
I want to thank all you for participating in the poll from last week! Have fun and be safe for now! :-D
