Newsletter or Blog Committee:  Joy Breslauer.  I don't plan to be a
committee of one.  We can work together closely with the web site committee.
Once we get a current web presence up and running, and decide what we want
on the web site and whether we want a blog, then we can post stuff on the
blog site every week or two.  If someone wants to write up something they
think should be on the blog, then the editor or editors responsible for that
can post it for them.  The way it works on WordPress, when something is put
up on the blog, it is sent out automatically that evening to whoever is on
an email list and they will receive a blurb in their inbox, so they can
either read it from the email they received or go to WordPress and read it
from there.  In the email you receive in your inbox, there might be the
first two lines of an article to pique your interest, and then a link that
says "read more."  If you click on that link, then you will be taken to the
web site where you can read the rest of the article.  Articles are usually
quite short and newsy, but sometimes they can be quite long if they are
dealing with something in depth.  You can also link articles to other
articles that might interest someone, if the articles deal with the same
subject.  I'm not very good at that.  This will be an evolving learning
experience.

Braille Literacy Committee: Dar Aldrich (maybe we can start a Bell Program
in Montana.)  I'll get some Braille cards (I didn't mean playing cards,
although I guess that would be an idea too.)  Knowing and using Braille
comes in so handy for so many things.

Bequest Letter Drafting Committee: Jeff Haworth, Jim Marks
