"Fact is, whether merited or not, East Austin is notorious for its violence.

"Recent efforts to stabilize the area East of I-35 in Austin have been encouraging. The replacing of Chester's Nightclub with Space12 is just one such change that is morphing this part of town into something other than a cliche'.

"Our announcement of intent earlier this month has evolved into action. This past Sunday, Tom King and I arrived at 3121 E. 12th Street with 4 Pentium 4 computers, monitors and all the cabling and network gear to begin our installation of the Thomas M. Edwards Technology Learning Center. The remaining 12 will be installed after the April Linux Against Poverty event where we will be the recipient of computers needed to finish the project."
