Hi Lynn and Jan, 
if either of you get this, please pass it on to whomever you think should know. Also, let me know that somebody's out there.
 What's going on with the NFB lists? I didn't receive anything from any of my lists for months - way before Convention. I thought it was due to problems I was having with a combination of equipment, email programs and our local internet provider. 

 In brief, Yahoo took over our local email from Frontier,, and changed their site to something I still haven't got the hang of. So, I tried changing my nfb lists to a Gmail account. When that didn't work, I contacted David Andrews. Dave got me back on nfbp-talk. I receive emails from nfbp-talk , but nothing I've tried to post gets on the list. None of my other lists - including the national members list - work at all. I particularly Miss the Jigsaw chapter list. I had contact emails for nfbp and jigsaw people in my old Outlook account - which stopped working and crashed the Microsoft tool that was supposed to fix it - and my old Frontier account, which I haven't figured out how to access. Some were in Gmail also. But, when Gmail switched Rural and blind users from Basic HTML to Standard, guess who's address book they lost. 
 I missed everything about Convention! Dave Andrews said there have been problems with many of the lists and that it was a Microsoft issue. If it's this extensive, when are we going to find a new list provider? I haven't been active since my husband's illness and death years back, but these lists have been a Lifeline for me. 
 I used to be a volunteer publicist   for the NFB of PA (Jim Antonacci), as well as the NFB Writers Division (Robert Leslie Newman) and the Performing Arts Division (Dennis Sumlin). 
Hope everybody's well. A special shout-out to Harriet and Denice who may remember me from the old days.
