Thanks to all of you who responded, even Cindy. I have moved to a bigger
city with this service at the branches. Heather, thanks for your well
thought out response. I think I am leaning toward getting my printer/scanner
oout of storage and taking advantage of the KNFB reader special that's run
every summer. I can't really pay right now.

How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young,
compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving and tolerant of
the weak and strong. Because someday in your life you will have been all of
these.
