Well, I don't understand it either.  But Maybe it's a good thing 
I didn't send the original email with the subject "question" on 
my phone because I would have used text lingo and it probably 
would have miss spelled words and abbreviations for certain 
words.

I don't know what you mean, here, by stepping back and laughing 
at
ourselves.  If we're writing for business or professional 
purposes and
mangle spelling and sentence structure, it's no laughing matter.  
Even
though standards for writing have been drastically lowered, these 
days, it
doesn't mean that we need to lower our own standards and settle 
for poor
sentence structure, bad grammar and poor spelling.

We need to step back and laugh at ourselves, and also help one 
another.

We had a long day here in NY.  The NFB of NY, and some members of 
the NJ
Affiliate went on a cruse ship tour of the Norwegian Gem today.

We had an awesome time, the staff was great, we all were educated 
about a
lot of things, they learned from us as well, and they implemented 
braille
menus on the ship and will look to add to the rest of the fleet.

HArd work pays off, I have been working hand in hand with the 
cruise line,
and they are working hard with us.  We had a total of 18 people, 
5 were
sighted, one guide dog mine, the were a few that cancelled the 
last minute
that had guide dogs, but there was suppose to be 4 in total.

I will write more about it for the braille monitor.  But it was a 
busy day
for us the blind and for us working with a company who is trying 
to make
things better.

um does you teacher read braille.

Also watch your spelling since is spelled s I n c e, no sence.
Being blind and know how to read and write braille we need to
know how to spell correctly.

This is just some friendly advice, in school I grew up sighted,
and had very strong family with spelling, grammar is another
issue but spelling important.

As a grown up, I remind my daughter, so forgive the correction.

Sincerely,

   Hello everyone,

   I have a geometry exam next week and my teacher told us that 
we
   can use one sheet of notebook paper front and back for 
anything
   that we don't feel comfortable with or are a little unsure of.
   So my question is, how many pages is that in Braille? I've
heard
   that for every page and Braille is only is only half a page in
   print, but sence geometrry have so much pictures, wouldn't 
that
   take up more space than words?

   I hope this makes sence.  And I have to do it because my
teacher
   is grading it as a quiz grade.

   Thanks,
   Winona
