      Charmides and Other Poems - Oscar Wilde

      Project Gutenberg's Etext of Charmides and Other Poems by Wilde #15 in our series by Oscar Wilde

      Copyright laws are changing all over the world, be sure to check the copyright laws for your country before posting these files!!

      Please take a look at the important information in this header. We encourage you to keep this file on your own disk, keeping an electronic path open for the next readers. Do not remove this.

      **Welcome To The World of Free Plain Vanilla Electronic Texts**

      **Etexts Readable By Both Humans and By Computers, Since 1971**

      *These Etexts Prepared By Hundreds of Volunteers and Donations*

      Information on contacting Project Gutenberg to get Etexts, and further information is included below. We need your donations.

      Charmides and Other Poems

      by Oscar Wilde

      September, 1997 [Etext #1031]

      Project Gutenberg's Etext of Charmides and Other Poems by Wilde

      ******This file should be named crmds10.txt or crmds10.zip******

      Corrected EDITIONS of our etexts get a new NUMBER, crmds11.txt.

      VERSIONS based on separate sources get new LETTER, crmds10a.txt.

      Scanned and proofed by David Price ccx074@coventry.ac.uk

      We are now trying to release all our books one month in advance of the official release dates, for time for better editing.

      Please note: neither this list nor its contents are final till midnight of the last day of the month of any such announcement. The official release date of all Project Gutenberg Etexts is at Midnight, Central Time, of the last day of the stated month. A preliminary version may often be posted for suggestion, comment and editing by those who wish to do so. To be sure you have an up to date first edition [xxxxx10x.xxx] please check file sizes in the first week of the next month. Since our ftp program has a bug in it that scrambles the date [tried to fix and failed] a look at the file size will have to do, but we will try to see a new copy has at least one byte more or less.

      Information about Project Gutenberg (one page)

      We produce about two million dollars for each hour we work. The fifty hours is one conservative estimate for how long it we take to get any etext selected, entered, proofread, edited, copyright searched and analyzed, the copyright letters written, etc. This projected audience is one hundred million readers. If our value per text is nominally estimated at one dollar then we produce $2 million dollars per hour this year as we release thirty-two text files per month, or 384 more Etexts in 1997 for a total of 1000+ If these reach just 10% of the computerized population, then the total should reach over 100 billion Etexts given away.

      The Goal of Project Gutenberg is to Give Away One Trillion Etext Files by the December 31, 2001. [10,000 x 100,000,000=Trillion] This is ten thousand titles each to one hundred million readers, which is only 10% of the present number of computer users. 2001 should have at least twice as many computer users as that, so it will require us reaching less than 5% of the users in 2001.

      We need your donations more than ever!

      All donations should be made to Project Gutenberg/CMU: and are tax deductible to the extent allowable by law. (CMU = Carnegie- Mellon University).
