Glenn,

> Hi Greg, it is good to hear from you, I was actually just wondering how you were doing.

I had an Epi at S1-L5, L5-L4, and L4-L3 b-laterally, as well as facets at L5-L4. L4-L3. The numbness, pain, and weakness in both legs seems to be mostly gone. I am technically on bed rest the remainder of the week. I never could figure out to lay in bed for three days. The doctors nurse even called yesterday to make sure I was resting. I guess they next have to work on the pain in the Thoracic spine. T5 to C7 give or take.

I tried making the last meeting, but my body still was not up for it. I am very confident that I will be at the next meeting coming up in May. Be careful and try not to get hit by a car while crossing the street. It has caused relentless pain for the last year and a half.

It works really great :-) I highly recommend everyone upgrade or install the updated Kindle app. I believe every one will find it to be a very useful book reader to keep in your toolbox.

I would love to learn of any readers that others have found to be useful in their tool boxes.

>> I got all of the books I owned in print converted to an accessible digital format, if they were not available in the Safari Books Online commercial service. Safari Books Online is a really great technical book service. All together I have access to over 180,000 books using the various books source and book readers in my tool box.

>> P.S. I call the customer service folks for the Safari Books Online service and request a discount. I tell them I am blind. They have given me ~$80 off each year I call in to renew. I pay $399 instead of what ever their prevailing charge.
