I wonder if this documentary will be on Animal Planet?

Hey! I had no problem with your distribution of the announcement -- she
targeted a bunch of us anyway. Besides, had she not done so, it would have
given me a chance to make my acerbic comment. (grin)

I certainly *hope* Carla is right but confess to having considerable doubt.

I had mixed feelings about distributing the message, but did so because I
was asked by an affiliate leader.  Later, Carla McQuillin told me she had a
conversation with the woman, and felt better about the whole thing -- the
woman did understand that primarily the experience would be the same for a
blind person.
