Hi Ashley,

I believe the listserve chair is Dominique Lawless.  Is that 
correct?

"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 
nuisance." -- Kenneth Jernigan (President of the National 
Federation of the Blind, 1968-1986.)

Elizabeth,
As you know, sometimes things get heated here whether its on 
topic or not.
There is a list serve chair; it used to be Arielle.  I am not 
positive whom
it is so I won't name names.
Anyway, we've calmed down and I'm sure we can have a peaceful 
list once
again.  After all we are all youth or young adults.

Thank you for taking charge in bringing this email list back to 
where it
should be.  However, I am also wondering why none of the current 
board
members have not done anything publically to steer the list back 
in the
right direction.  Is it typical for you to moderate this list on 
your own, or
is there generally someone designated by the board to help you in 
this
matter as well? Any clarification you can provide on this matter 
would be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Elizabeth

 The range and number of off topic messages here in the last week 
or so has
 been astounding.  Consequently, I have placed the whole list 
under
 moderated status until they die out.  This means that each 
message has to
 be approved by me.

 This list exists to support nabs and state organizations of 
students and
 for discussion of blindness-related student matters.  It is not 
for
 political discussion, advertising internet radio stations, 
personal
 messages etc.

 And ...  please don't feel you should debate me about the 
purpose of the
 list.  I am not trying to be harsh, just trying to get people 
back on
 track.  When things stray too far, people start unsubscribing.

 David Andrews, List Owner
