Mike.

Thanks to Everett and yourself for the comments.

My interest in Drupal is twofold.

   1. Curiosity and to expand my knowledge.
   2. I have this vision of creating a platform to draw blind and visually
   impaired students into investigating programming as a career. It would be
   great if it was at a national level; but, a chapter level is ok. With 70%
   unemployment in our community, there is obviously a great need. I must
   admit, though, that, other than Peter D,, I've found zero support. But, I
   can't give up the vision without feeling I've let down a lot of kids. The
   Drupal development platform and learning support activities that it
   requires, I think, is a great learning mechanism.
