[Blindtlk] web site development question

Julie:

If you don't get the answers you need here, we have another list, 
nfb-web, nfb webmasters, which might be a better place. The link to 
subscribe is http://www.nfbnet.org/mailman/listinfo/nfb-web_nfbnet.org

Also, you have Mike Hansen in your affiliate -- he is very 
knowledgable.  I think he is a Drupal guy, but might be able to help!
