Thank you I will be away for a couples of day for Leadership Seminar here with NY State.  So when I get back, if feel strongly about many of us following in my lead and the lead of others, if you want to be mentored to go into this rewarding business, where it is not only okay great pay when you are selling, yes it is all commission, but it is your own business, and you are working to make things more accessible for us the blind.
Your sister in the NFB.
