[Nfbc-info] Suggestions please.

[Rob Kaiser]

Good morning Maria and one and all:

There are 2 people in the Orange County Chapter (which is still currently in 
limbo) who did Braille transcription. (Shelley Alongi and Sharron Matson.) 
Shelley is currently no longer in the state of California but Sharron still 
(I believe in costa Mesa. She (a few years ago) passed the transcription 
exam and she received her transcription's license or whatever they call it. 
To respect Sharron's privacy, I don't want to give her number on the list 
serve. If you contact me off list at the email below, I can then forward 
your information to her. In the mean time, because I don't believe she is on 
the list serve, I will forward your message on to Sharron so that she is 
aware that she might be contacted by you.

Hope this helps.

Hi Marie,


My name is Lisa Irving. At one a number of professionals deemed that I was 
incapable  of learning  of mastering technology. I am living  life on my 
terms; not according  to the nets ayers. Three people  in this organization 
have tapped into  my learning  style  and now I'm  learning. To use a 
variety of technology  toys.

My point is  his: do what you what love; not what others deem.

Best,
Lisa Irving
