Hi Elizabeth,

Amy is looking for information about the students seminar.  But 
thanks for the link to the main Seminar page.

"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

 Is there a link to a website about winter seminar? We are 
wanting to
 coordinate a weekend event that wraps up with attending the 
winter seminar
 but I can't seem to find a link or the info.  Does someone have 
it handy so
 I don't have to dig around for it.  Thanks

 Thanks!

 Subject: [nabs-l] Blogs and off topic responses

 Hello all, the best way to find out if a blog or site is 
accessible is to
 try it first, see if there are any barriers which come up, and 
then see if
 there is work-around that may fix any accessibility issues.

 Blogger, to my knowledge is accessible at least, if you want to 
create a
 basic blog.  I'm sure that pictures, videos, and links can be 
accessible as
 well, but I have personally never played around with the 
options.  I kept a
 blog documenting my experiences at LCB and found it very simple.  
You can
 check it out at

 Also, let's try to keep this list free of negative responses.  
Often times
 these negative responses are irrelevant, and simply do nothing 
but clutter
 up our mailboxes.

 It's great that we have such an active list.  Let's remember 
that there is
 a difference between discussion, and argument.

 Thanks for reading,
 Alex
