 * 2) OPEN UP a NEW WORD PROCESSING DOCUMENT (Your instructor with tell you which application to use ie GoogleDocs)
 * 3) Tile the windows so they appear side to side
 * 4) Using a NUMERIC BULLET FORMAT, begin "translating" **section 4.1 (User Responsibilities)** into //**your OWN words**// to clearly explain the meaning of each item. You can also include examples where appropriate (and tasteful). You don't have to retype the entire section.

 * How many rules are there for users?
 * What are you supposed to do if you stumble on to a "nasty" web site?
 * Which rule forbids playing games on the computers?
