[Nyagdu] our website

OK, here is a rough draft.  Please make suggestions, corrections,
additions, deletions...
I've forgotten how much dues are, for one thing.

Here it is:
We are the New York Association of Guide Dog Users, a division of the NFB
of New York, and also of the National Association of Guide Dog Users.  We
welcome people who are guide dog users, those who are interested in
becoming guide dog users, or those who just care about
guide dog issues.  Dues are only $5.00? per year.
We help people having dog-related access issues advocate for themselves,
and we work to improve laws so as to prevent future problems.  Through our
listserv, nyagdu at nfbnet.org, we discuss issues relating to guide dogs,
anything from access to dog retirement, behavior questions, or whether
getting a guide dog might be a good move for you.  We have dog users from
several different training programs, which gives us a broader perspective
than groups limited to one school's graduates.  Also, our association with
our national division lets us share ideas and solutions with other dog
users all over the country. We invite you to join us to make friends and
do important work.
