[nfbmi-talk] Colors Question

[joe harcz Comcast]

Youre welcome and Blind Mice Mart are full of good and wonderful folks.

I love those guys for all they do and that isn't an NFB/ACB thing either.

They are just good blind folks trying to do good things for other blind 
folks and make just a little bit of jingle for themselves in the process 
without any sort of greed or that sort of thing.

But I digress...

Happy hunting...I'll work more though on getting the teflon skived tape 
connection...


Wow here's a thought for the future as my hands are full ... HOw about NFB 
MI getting some of that stuff from the manufacturer and retailing it for a 
small mark up as fundraising?

I don't know the ins and outs of this stuff but it's worth a though I 
guess...
