Lisa,
    I will not address the first part of your comments, as I feel I have 
already done so. As for streaming or recording, this is our plan.

Fraternally,
Marion

>> Marsha,
>> I think you had it right, the pannel as it is described will be

>> This looks like a question and answer session not a discussion where
>> anybody's minds well be changed. If there is any mind-changing to be
>> had, the implication at least as I understand it will be solely on the
>> part of the dog users, not the staff of the centers.
>> I think this is what Angie is getting at.

>> Angie,
>> The panel would be compromised of staff from the centers, LCB, CCB,
>> BlindInc, and Iowa. We as guide dog users are there to ask questions to
>> those people, so that we can better understand what the centers think of
>> guide dog users, how they want us to participate and more. If others
>> from the NFB who are not guide users want to join us too, then they are
>> welcome too. I guess I am not understanding what you are wanting. We are
>> not going to put something together that is going to be a waste of time.
>> And yes it is not going to be a knock out, drag out sort of discussion,
>> it will be of questions and answers. Maybe I don't get it, so someone
>> explain it to me please.
