[humanser] Seeking publication cited Re: Giving motivational talks as a way of earning money?

[Sandy]

Girardo

I went to nfb.org, to link called publications, put in the title "When your 
Best Efforts Fail," and hit the search button.  This gave me a list, and I 
learned this publication is a letter that NFB sent out to a large number of 
eye specialists in the 1960's.  Hope this helps.
