What if I do not have web access?

Are you absolutely sure that you don't have web access? You are reading this, after all.

Ok. Giving you the benefit of the doubt, there are many ways to get access to the web, even FREE access! The two most typical places from which to access the web are your workplace and your home. If you already have a computer at either place you are halfway there. You may already have web access and not realize it. If you aren't sure, ask the technical support at your office, lab, etc. If there doesn't seem to be anyone with that designation, look for a guy with poor taste in clothes, sub optimal social skills, or a pocket protector (commonly referred to as a "nerd"). Such an individual can probably help you seek the on-line status. If you have a computer which is not connected to the internet but you have a modem, and a phone line then you can reach the internet with some commonly available software from America Online, Erols Internet, FreeWeb, etc.. Most of these charge a small monthly fee, but some are completely free (provided you are willing to put up with some advertisements).

If you do not have a computer at work then you might be able to use someone else's. You don't really need a computer 8 hours a day in order to take advantage of the CCRF website. An hour or two each month should suffice. See if some kind soul would let you use theirs. Public libraries, universities, and even some coffee shops are alternative sources for computers from which you may be able to get on-line.
