appreciate the honest dialogue here and think it is an extremely important one

website makes it very clear it is being run by the National Federation of the
Blind. The profile is even called NFB Fundraising—in case someone was under
the misconception that this was simply just public outreach and awareness. So,
what does “internally” mean. Although my quick note was more to understand
what the plan was, I did mention the newsletter as one possibility. I think
the key however is ultimately getting this data set to be part of the NFB’s
unified database “internally.” It may mean that this data is identified in a
particular way. However, we should be examining this data to understand what
impact the survey has had. For example, how many of these email addresses are
already in our system? If it is only 10% we have done a fabulous job of
connecting new contacts with our organization. If it is 90%, we know we have a
better job to do. However, that also gives us data that we can use.

<P style="BACKGROUND: white" class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: black">Most
importantly, if we do not all agree that the “internally” is the National
Federation of the Blind than I think we need to have a real serious discussion
about what we are doing, who we are doing it for, and what organization is
going to manage the data.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P style="BACKGROUND: white" class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: black">Let me
also say this is not the only place this discussion is happening. In the last

it—when it was clearly data of the National Federation of the Blind.
