[Nfbmo] Odd situation.

[Chris]

Hey Randy,

I guess my first thought would be to make sure this is the person I was in 
the forth grade with.  Then I might explain what I have been up to during 
the years and ask what life has held for him.  Then you might start 
educating on blind.

Warmly,

Chris
