<DIV>Hi all,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>There seems to be a lot of questions about who created this
list and why. Also, why our members' email addresses were included. On
Monday, I sent out a general email to everyone stating that the office had
decided to create this list serve as a way to keep us all connected (I
have pasted a copy of it below this email). I would use this
list to disseminate emails that would usually come from the office...such as
"The Federationist", legislative alerts, messages from our National Office,
etc. By implementing this list, we have also given chapters an opportunity
to keep people in the affiliate informed as to their activities. And,
individuals now have a forum to network with other members about issues
concerning blindness and their daily lives.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Over the years, I have accumulated a list of members and interested people
who have indicated that they would like to receive emails from our office. Any
of these emails were included in Monday's email from my office email, and
they were also included in our list serve. While I understand the initial
frustration with all the activity this list has generated over the past couple
of days, I'd urge you all to be patient and remain on the list. If you remove
yourself, you will not be receiving emails from us at all. I will no longer be
sending general emails to all of you from the office email address, and each
chapter contact person will no longer be forwarding emails either. We will work
to remove emails of those who requested it as soon as possible.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If you have further questions, please consider asking our moderator Justin
Salisbury at <A href="mailto:salisburyj08@students.ecu.edu"
target=_blank>salisburyj08@students.ecu.edu</A> or myself at <A
href="mailto:llee@nfbct.org" target=_blank>llee@nfbct.org</A> rather than
addressing the whole list. Please remember that when you hit 'reply' to any
emails that you receive from our list, you are responding to the whole list, not
just one person.</DIV>

National Federation of the Blind of Connecticut is developing an listserv to
provide better communication between our members and friends, and our chapters
and divisions. This list will be used to provide information about issues of
importance to the blind, news from our Affiliate and the National Office, job
openings in the State of Connecticut, as well as announcements of the activities
of our chapters, the affiliate and the NFB. Our moderator will be Justin
Salisbury; he can be reached at <A href="mailto:salisburyj08@students.ecu.edu"
