We had a great time and are looking forward to doing it again very soon. While we were here, Miranda joined me in my studio and I have attached the result of our work together. In the very near future, I would like to have another gathering with a lot more members, record everyone reciting the 1-minute (actually 19-second) message, and create an audio collage as a public service announcement. I hope you will consider joining us at that gathering and helping us spread the message that blindness is not the characteristic that defines us!<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Fraternally yours,<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Marion Gwizdala<o:p></o:p></p></div></div></blockquote><blockquote type="cite"><div><span>_______________________________________________</span><br><span>NFBF-Tampa mailing list</span><br><span><a href="mailto:NFBF-Tampa@nfbnet.org">NFBF-Tampa@nfbnet.org</a></span><br><span><a href="http://nfbnet.org/mailman/listinfo/nfbf-tampa_nfbnet.org">http://nfbnet.org/mailman/listinfo/nfbf-tampa_nfbnet.org</a></span><br><span>To unsubscribe, change your list options or get your account info for NFBF-Tampa:</span><br><span><a href="http://nfbnet.org/mailman/options/nfbf-tampa_nfbnet.org/gawberg%40verizon.net">http://nfbnet.org/mailman/options/nfbf-tampa_nfbnet.org/gawberg%40verizon.net</a></span></div></blockquote></div></body></html>
