  Hi all,
        For all those who couldn't make it to the  rally - and for those who
  did and want to have an audio record, here's the  recording - unedited -
  that I made of the Gov. Nixon's short speech at the  rally.
      I don't have editing software (but if anyone has  some good free
  software I could use to do so, i'm interested) so the files  starts shortly after
  an introduction for the Governor, then the speech and  afterwards some
  comments about the event and the presentation by NFB notables  Debbie Wunder,
  Brent and Carie Ford, Ruby Polk and others whose voices I should  know but
  don't.
     The audio is 8 minutes and 41 seconds long.
  Dan

Here is a link that will take you the story in today?s Columbia Daily Tribune about the rally.

Also, President Wunder did a great job in a radio sound bite on the KFRU news this afternoon.

I write to thank you for all of the time and energy you put into making today possible.  I was asked by a reporter what optimism I could bring to blind people who were worried about these cuts, and the single most thing that makes me feel optimistic is that we have mobilized to try to stop them and to help almost 3000 blind people.

I do not know how much press we have gotten as a result of the rally and the press release we issued earlier today.  I do know that Bill Neal had a substantial segment on one of our local television channels in the five o'clock hour and a smaller one at six.  There was an interview on our news talk radio station here which played for several hours, and I think the coverage was favorable.  I know that a reporter from the University of Missouri radio station here in Columbia was present throughout the rally and that many of us were interviewed.  I have not heard that coverage, but I have every reason to believe that the sacrifice you made in coming will be reflected in that piece.

Not everyone who attended today has e-mail.  Please see that they get a thank you as well.

Let's not stop.  Our legislators are at home this week.  Find their local numbers.  Many home numbers are listed.  Give them a call.  Write to them; in the case of our Columbia representatives, the messages they receive are being forwarded to them.

Thanks again to all.

Gary
