Mike Greenly interviewed Drs. Michelle Weil and Larry Rosen on the subject and shared the results with his online readers. In this issue of NETWEAVER, Stefanie Kott reports on Mike's interview and the lively discussion which followed. People who fall in love with computer conferencing soon fall in love with something else - laptop computers! Read about a real life "case study" of how an ad was created via laptop by Philip Siddons. The presidential campaign of 1988 is already well underway. Discussions of how computer conferencing could support the political process both before AND after the election have started up on many networks. A couple of candidates have set up their own private systems and more will probably follow. Dave Hughes has probably had more experience than anyone in the world at using an online system as an integral part of local politics. We've collected a series of Dave's online comments for NETWEAVER readers about his experience and what he's concluded about the place of electronic communication at the grass-roots level. The effectiveness of online "calls for action" is being tested this month. The FCC is accepting comments on proposed new rules which may have an effect on online costs (CC Docket 87-215) until October 26th so there's still time to make your views known. See past issues of NETWEAVER for a range of viewpoints on this issue and get YOUR comments in on time! Comments should be addressed to: The Honorable Dennis R. Patrick, Chairman, Federal Communications Commission, Washington, D.C. 20554. Get ready to mark your calendar! We will soon announce the exact dates for the next ENA f-t-f meeting which will take place in Philadelphia in May '88. If you have an idea for the program or would like to participate in putting this event together, let us know soon. Everyone with an interest in computer conferencing is welcome to participate. We're always looking for more articles and article ideas for NETWEAVER. What would YOU like to see here next month? 3 (of 8) ENA EDITOR Oct. 18, 1987 at 16:48 Eastern (5187 characters) ENA NETWEAVER Volume 3, Number 10, Article 3 (October 1987) "COMPUTER FEAR" (Another Mike Greenly Special) by Stefanie Kott Mike Greenly, the online roving camera, invited members of NWI to meet two Ph.D.'s in psychology, Michelle Weil and Larry Rosen, a married couple who specialze in treating computerphobia. He took us into their living room, described it and their casual dress, breathed life into their dynamic relationship, and then got down to business. "Phobic reactions to technology appear to be one reason so many bank customers still avoid actively using the widely installed base of cash-card terminals...or...learning how to program the videotape recorders they own, or...using all the features of their microwave ovens," Michelle said. Add to this the fact that Larry teaches courses in statistics requiring computer use, and that he finds that over half his students demonstrate fear of computers--a quarter of them with degrees of panic--and you have motivation to explore the phenomenon of computerphobia seriously. Michelle, Larry, and Dr. Deborah Sears, who work out of California State University in Dominquez Hills, California, applied for, and received, a three-year Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education (FIPSE) grant to develop "a treatment model for eliminating the effects of fear that hold people back from computers and their importance in business and education," Mike explained. The research team has identified three types of computerphobia and treatment for each. In brief: The Anxious Computerphobic, who exhibits physical symptoms such as sweaty palms and back tension, is treated with systematic desensitization. Treatment includes relaxation techniques employed while imagining situations in which computers have been a source of anxiety. The Cognitive Computerphobic, who appears calm but is certain that the computer is smarter |han he or she is, is made aware of his or her negative feelings. Then an attempt is made to stop the negative thoughts by "creating a void" where negative thinking was, and replacing the negative thoughts with positive ones. The end result of this approach, essentially, is to give these computerphobics a feeling of competence. Treatment for the Uncomfortable User is done in groups of ten and is designed to develop computer awareness and eliminate misconceptions about the computer. Among other things done in this treatment process, the insides of a computer are shown and floppy disks are cut apart. There is improvement with all their subjects, and the study is ongoing. Some of the interesting facts that emerge include: * There is not necessarily as much comfort among young people as we tend to think. * Young people who play arcade games do not necessarily take well to computers. * Teachers are often computerphobic. When students learn from computerphobics, the results are predicatable. * People who are adept at the computer should not assume that friends and members of their families will approach computer use with equal ease. The unshaking belief that computers will continue to be important in our lives underlies the motivation of the researchers to help as many computerphobics as they can. Their goals include expanding the program to reach more teachers, businesspeople, and even governments agencies both in the U.S. and abroad. As always in Mike's interviews, the readers are invited to contribute their ideas about the topic. And, as usual, many of the readers did. There was a lively discussion of computer fear itself, as opposed to real phobias about computers. A few people pointed out that those who experience real phobias have emotionally based reactions of deeper origin than those who experience computer fear. Also discussed was the fact that there has been too little study done in this area even to have an adequate construct to describe the phenomenon, and that computer fear will likely be found to result from numerous personal, cultural, and subcultural factors as yet not fully understood. A healthy discussion developed around the idea of legitimizing the notion of computer fear too much. Some readers feel that enthusiasm about technology and what it can do, coupled with excitement about learning it, far surpass treating people as if there are problems inherent in the process they are entering as they begin to learn to use computers. Some offered advice about dealing with people who are fearful of computers. One believes that starting with a laptop like the Radio Shack Model 100 is advantageous because the perception of it is that it is more typewriter-like than computer-like, and therefore less threatening. A few readers expressed the feeling that using analogies to things known are helpful, such as likening memory to the brain of the computer. Others believe it is key to let people know that they cannot hurt the computer by pressing a wrong key, and that the computer is not, in fact, smarter than they are.

With my usual luck, I've managed to find a table not only next to an outlet, but beside the two story picture window overlooking 57th and 40th. It's ten AM and beneath me flows a river of taxies, limos, buses, and upscale cars through the canyons of skyscrapers. People were walking on the traffic's banks with stern determination, seemingly confident they will reach their offices. Cautious enough to wear jogging shoes in contrast to their suits. Athletic wear to catch up to a bus? Outrun another taxi hunter? Perhaps to run away from a would be mugger? Everyone in New York has a story. It's a jungle out there. I had counted my odds when passing the tall and bedranggled looking bag man on the street outside the Hyatt. Was he exposing himself to the picture window? No, just talking in argumentative tones to the manikin in the store window. Would he turn his rage on me? "VISITING ADVERTISING DIRECTOR BRUTALLY SLAIN OUTSIDE HOTEL." More probably: "UNKNOWN MAN SLAIN BY CRAISED FORMER STOCK EXCHANGE EXECUTIVE." There's something unique about eating breakfast while overlooking 57th and 40th. The restaurant is deserted. The late morning hour has dictated that lodgers must be at their points of interest or company conferences. They're out in the canyons of metropolis, trying to get their vacation money's worth, or their company's money's worth. I've already taken an early morning stroll down the street and purchased a T-shirt for my daughter. Great graphic of a collection of people riding on a bus. Most of their faces look bewildered. The caption below is "New York City, only the strong survive." Only a Manhatten native could have written that copy. Not something I've seen on posters produced by the chamber of commerce for travel agencies. And when you order an eighteen dollar breakfast, the cheapest on the menu, while overlooking this sea of humanity in transport through the architecture, your breakfast companion is guilt. Will the company really believe that this breakfast cost eighteen dollars? How come I'm not out there in the flow of humanity, on my way to being productive in society, instead of sitting in this luxurious restaurant? The tall black gangly bag man I quickly passed on my way back into the fortress of the Hyatt has appeared on the far corner. Now he's talking to the Citycorp building on the adjacent corner. I thought that if I had any breakfast left over, I would take give it to the fellow. How can he survive in this stainless steel and concrete forest when it must take fifty thousand for the rest of these people to live in at least a studio? An ad. I might as well be productive and work on our company's next ad. That's it. I'll create an ad with my lap top and be productive sitting where I am. I don't have to chase a taxi out there. Grow where you're planted. First things first. The product. We want to advertise Epson printers and computers. The problem with computers is they're ugly. No matter what brand you advertise, all computer hardware is ugly. You can temporarily distract your audience with the former cast of MASH, or Charleton Heston, but sooner or later they'll notice. They look like the result of an unsuccessful marriage of a typewriter and a television. Anything for a picture of people having something to do with the computer. Perhaps a picture of the bag man across the street. "The computer that changed my life" he might say as he gaily looked up from his keyboard. Unfortunately he's is sitting down on the sidewalk against the building, unavailable for a photo session. Must have grown tired of Citycorp's lack of response. He's still talking to an invisible listener, feet stretched out haphazardly. People walk around him without complaint. "How would you like to be photographed for a newspaper ad for an Epson computer?" I'd might ask him. "You'd be on the second page of the financial section of the Buffalo paper. I'd need you to sit by this machine, smiling at the results of your laser printer's output. You need to look productive, stimulated, satisfied, delighted that you are privileged to be using this technology." Back to the ad. Art really makes an ad. Where am I going to get something with people in it. No matter what anyone says, if you haven't got something visual, you haven't got an ad. We've grown up with Fred Roger's puppets and the gala folks on Sesame Street. We demand to be visually stimulated. I wonder what Fred Rogers would have said to this bag man if he showed up in The Land of Make Believe? And then there are the people riding on the bus of the new T-shirt over on the corner of the breakfast table. That's it. Weary travelers in hopes of being successful for another day. Why not use them? When I get back to the office,I'll photocopy the T-shirt, run the image through the scanner, and pull it into the ad. Even in New York I can get the creative juices going. I wonder if the bag man has ever heard of Epson Computers? Now he's on his feet rummaging through a nearby trash receptacle. He is opening bags eating left over food. Drinking out of a discarded pop can. He probably isn't worried about diseases because he has built up tremendous immunity. But whatever he's had for breakfast, he didn't pay $ 2.95 for the orange juice. OK, now the ad has a picture of the bus passengers. The headline. It's got to be short, catchy. It's got to offer something. The people in the drawing look like they need to be home in an air-conditioned room with their feet up on the chair. Nothing Epson computers has is going to change their bus ride. How about going from the angle of catching these people off guard? Candid camera playing Trivial Pursuit. No relief is in sight for these travelers, so I'll offer them a quiz game to pass the time. 5 (of 8) ENA EDITOR Oct. 18, 1987 at 16:50 Eastern (5087 characters) ENA NETWEAVER Volume 3, Number 10, Article 5 (October 1987) Lap Top Publishing (Part II) by Philip Siddons QUICK QUIZ: WHO IS THE LARGEST EPSON BUSINESS CENTER IN WESTERN NEW YORK And the most fun to deal with? Now if the bag man across the street were buying a computer and printer, he'd have to know something about Epson hardware. He would also want some assurance that the people he's dealing with are OK sort of folks. People who wouldn't turn him out or question his credit because of his smelly clothing. People who wouldn't come to the conclusion that he may have been released from a mental institution with a month's supply of Thorzine and the name of his social worker. Below the picture I'll put some clues. The T-shirt commuters look haggard. They don't even have the energy to respond "Who cares!" They just want to be entertained. And readers of the ad would trust the fatigue on the faces of the drawing and say to themselves: "OK, a quiz! Gimme some clues." So I give some. CLUES: 1. They (the full line Epson Computer & Printer Dealer") carry the fabulous Epson Equity line computers. 2. They sell all of the fine quality Epson dot matrix and laser printers. 3. They have a technical support crew who are second to none. 4. They offer training courses and advanced consulting for most industry standard software applications. 5. They have the friendly, competent, and accessible kind of people you've always wanted to deal with on a day-to-day basis. Surely for all of the people hooked on detective novels which demand that they recall clues, and those who thrive on remembering facts for the Jeopardy game, or those who enjoy the detail picking trivial games, a sense of suspense must be mounting. Obviously the people on the bus riding across my T-shirt don't care who is the largest Epson computer and printer dealer in their area, but the bus ride is so boring that they're willing to find out just to take their mind off the monotonous ride. Across the street there is a woman giving something to her daughter beside her. Money. The little girl walks over to the bag man, handing him the change. He doesn't attack. He just puts the money in his pocket. The flow of pedestrians continues. Perhaps the bag man's headline and graphic is his own body slouched on the sidewalk against Citycorp. His visual captures the paradox of the towering height of corporate architecture and wealth with the plummeting poverty of a street derelict without a home, a master card, or breakfast. Which has arrived for me. It gets put on the far side of the table. Computer warranties don't cover damage caused by spilt coffee, Eggs Benedict, or Manhatten souffle'. Playing on the driving need for an answer to a quiz question, I next appropriately include: ANSWER Now answers to crossword puzzles and cereal box quizzes are usually printed upside down at the bottom. Tradition should not be overlooked. So I make a note to myself that when I return to my office, I am going to scan our company logo upside down and place it at the bottom of the ad. I'll draw an arrow from the word "ANSWER" to the inverted logo. How many people will really turn the ad in their paper upside down to find out the answer to the quiz question? Everyone, of course. Anyone who has identified with the people on the bus enough to read through the clues to the quick quiz will have to know how this question comes out. This time a portly balding man comes over to the bag man and hands him a few dollars. Was the donor a former bag man? Did he work his way up from being a street person to chief executive officer? This street person's campaign seems to be working. He knows people are basically good. They respond to human need. They'll help him guy on the street. Perhaps his audience will take thirty seconds of their life and read my ad about Epson printers. They'll buy them too. No one else has bothered to stretch their imagination across their reading material to communicate about Epson computers and printers. But then there will be the bank ad, perhaps placed above mine, with the cartoon figures of little people being treated like big people at that bank. But has anyone ever gone into a bank and felt like a big person? Certainly not the bag man who is now urinating against the trash can which provided his breakfast. Why can't I have a page to myself, like this man has the Citycorp building without competition from other derelicts? My seminar starts in an hour and its up near Central Park. Undoubtedly I'll pass by even more impoverished begging campaigns. I wonder where I can get myself a good pair of jogging shoes? -------------------------- Author's note: Philip Siddons is the director of advertising and marketing for a Buffalo computer firm, and is the author of "Speaking Our For Women" (Judson) as well as various magazine articles. 6 (of 8) ENA EDITOR Oct. 18, 1987 at 16:51 Eastern (5096 characters) ENA NETWEAVER Volume 3, Number 10, Article 6 (October 1987) Electronic Democracy (Part I) by Dave Hughes [The following comments are part of a current discussion on 'electronic democracy' taking place on DCMETA. Although many others have responded, Dave Hughes has taken this opportunity to share his rich experience. Through his comments we get a look at a vibrant example of technology applied to politics.] August 31 ========= Things are not just complex at state and national levels. Having operated a free-dial-up computer system with a major section devoted to public policy debate and politics with over 15,000 different individuals and over 70,000 calls to it over 5 years I am aware of how even among those already 'online' what a relatively small proportion can/will take the time to get into city or county matters - some of which are very complex. *But* I also think that there can be a wholly new approach to the concept of 'representative' governmnet. To put it colorfully and metaphorically, we may be electing 'sysops' in the future to represent us!!!! The very thing that Arterton [author of a recent study of 'electronic democracy'] cites as a problem (those who set them [systems] up want to 'set the agenda') is a subtle signal that the person who most may be involved is the one who is at the center of the telecom system. Think carefully of what a role even tv anchormen and radio talk show hosts are playing in 'setting the agenda' for many a national or local debate. In my own case, I am astonished at how many people come to me to represent them using my electronic political skills. Now I am active (Issues Chairman) of the local Democratic Party, have a rather conspicuous reputation for my use of telecom to challenge elected officials using just a BBS approach, yet I get called, dialed up, visited by 4 hard-rock Republicans in town for every Democrat to help *them* in their political cause. Its amazing. And when I am asked to run for a variety of offices I respond, "I don't have to - I am able to get lots of things done without sitting up there, trapped." And there is a Republican once-office holder who has a counterpart system across town (and feeds editorials into a local tv station) that is in a similar position. So I see the possibility of significant changes in the whole question of democracy-in-action. One example from local TV, which is backing into it. They have a digitized telephone service "City Line" which they promote at every newscast. Originally started as an ad-supported dial in for suich things as stock quotes. Anyone with a touchtone can call voice, hit the right keys, and get what they want in voice - free. But increasingly at the 5 o'clock news they take some hot local issue and invite the public to dial in and vote 'yep' or 'nope' with their key pad, and put the result on the air at 10 o'clock. For a medium town to get several thousand 'votes' recorded on almost every issue is amazing. But it also depends of the on-air discussion which has taken place - always led by press figures. Let me tell ya! They may be called 'polls' but they are influencing policy! And it is but a tiny step from neutral 'reporting' to editorial advocacy. Cross over to 'legal' voting? Dunno. But when I start my Electronic Mountain Town (with Teleport) you can be sure we will experiment with all forms of such local 'government.' Electronic Democracy may already be here, and we just don't want to acknowledge it. Excuse me, I gotta log onto my own system, three local journalists are going to me me there tonight at *my* Electronic City Hall! Footnote on Rereading - Arterton says 'cost a lot?' Sure a lot of over-kill types set up these elaborate sessions with live interactive television conferencing etc. My *very* effective political BBS that I ran for 3+ years with 50,000 calls 26,000 messages from 8,500 people cost me $8.50 a month (phone line), an hour a day to tend, about $250 worth of repairs over three years, running on a $1,800 micro. Ridiculously small amount for what it did. So little that I have been able to make the case at the city and county that this technology can be far cheaper than the way they are doing it now! That's why Colorado Springs is now looking into creating their own 'Electronic City Hall'. And I still have that micro and software! Anybody wanna buy a used system for $500? September 1 =========== The new City Councilman I helped elect via city BBSs has gotton the clearance from the City Attorney to discuss everything up to 'quasi-judicial' matters online, so long as acess to the discussion is open to all and free. Only question will arise if *two* or more councilpersons come into the same discussion. Then they gotta announce it in advance like other 'meetings' ! I will give you the one, obvious reason why Qube failed. It was based upon everyone just being able to 'vote' on public issues. The essense of politics is *discussion*, with the final vote a kind of necessary, legal, ritual. Qube had the ritual without the substance! 7 (of 8) ENA EDITOR Oct. 18, 1987 at 16:52 Eastern (4154 characters) ENA NETWEAVER Volume 3, Number 10, Article 7 (October 1987) Electronic Democracy (Part II) by Dave Hughes September 4 =========== Online *everybody* gets to say their piece - whether anyone else takes heed or not. Unlike almost any public meeting I have attended of any size with a conroversial subject. And the ability to 'go back again' and pick up subtle points not grasped the first time around (heh heh I just re-read *your* comments carefully before responding.) But there is another dimension to this question of 'apathy'. And that is sheer modern 'complexity' of public issues. Frankly, a lot of public matters are so horrendously complex and requiring more than a smattering of math, science, cultural expertise even to understand, that it is very hard for many (most?) in the general population to participate intelligently. Nuclear power, air traffic safety, automobile pollution (there is a raging debate going on on my system right now - triggered by State Representative Renny Fagan and State Air Quality Control Commission Member Roland Gow - over the proposed imposition of a requirement that all gas stations sell only 'oxygenated fuel'. Lots of the public is just bedazzled by the subject. And I, and Renny Fagan were 'attacked' online today by a caller for our ignornace of Organic Chemistry! Lemme tell ya. It takes a little chutzpah to argue with a Chemical Engineer - online or off! September 5 =========== I happen to believe that we haven't begun to scratch the surface of the possibilites of Electronic Democracy. Almost every 'objection' to it can be met by either technical, or information management techniques - *very* few of which have been tried. And remember we ought to be measuring whether or not an Electronic Political Process is better than the one we have now, not just whether it approaches a 'perfect' (everybody participates-everybody votes-evryone is represented) system. For god knows we have serious problems with the one we have now, which has been intensified by the one-way-media form of electronic debate. (which the FCC just helped along by removing the requirement on TV to carry both sides of an issue) No Sysop I know has ever set things up so that the caller can put the Sysop (or its sponsors) through the '3d degree' before committing themsleves to be in their 'data base.' Many is the time I have dialed into a strange system, had all these questions asked of me for 'registration' when I have no idea whether I should 'trust' te sysop with my personal information - government system or not! Sysops jsut assume that *they* should be trusted, while grilling new users. And, with the capbility of just about any micro/modem user (except those poor backward souls who just use *dumb terminals* <ugh> One can 'download' commitments, promises, answers given you by a sysop, keep it, and take it to court with you if the need ever arises. The Electronic Communications Privacy Act passed this (last? - my how elecronic time flies) year gives users of electronic means recourse at law for the misuse of ones information entered into certain systems. So maybe the time has come to set up 'government' BBSs so that the new caller can - online - extract legal, binding, commitments from the adminsitrators, or 'negotiate' what is needed. Hey, Government, in the Electronic Age the burden will be on *you* to prove to *me* you are worthy of my login!! Not vice versa. And it is far easier for government to determine -electronically - that the caller is who they say they are and have 'legal' standing (registered to vote, etc), than for the individual to 'qualify' a government BBS. But quite possible at both ends. We just have to start thinking a-new about how to do this within the framework of our political ideals and fundemental system of government. Problem is that everyone has been making the mistake futurists warn of - trying to linearly 'project' the present methods into the future. The nation had to cope with problems of high mobility, identification of voters in a mobile society, absentee-voting (WWII), etc!
