Well, hi, Nicki! I'm Kori from another list we're on together, and I'd like 
to extend a very warm welcome to you to Florida, and congrats for working at 
Freedom Scientific! Welcome to the Pinellis chapter and the NFB of Florida! 
I won't mention how far behind I am on the other list, LOL! And I'm on the 
NFBF list here through my computer, whereas I'm on the other one through Net 
By Phone. It's so good to see you here, and God bless. 2 Corinthians 4: 8-9 
With love and friendship, Kori
