[nabs-l] Off Topic Messages

Hi Joshua,

I'd be willing to help you. I have a name for it already,
blind-politics! I know how to create a Google Group, and can do that
for you. Of course, though, that would put me as the moderator, so if
you'd rather be the moderator, I can tell you how to do it. Please
write me off list.

Chris

"The real problem of blindness is not the loss of eyesight. The real
problem is the misunderstanding and lack of education that exists. If
a blind person has the proper training and opportunity, blindness can
be reduced to a mere physical nuissence." -- Kenneth Jernigan
