Ed, we certainly want to get information to everyone that we can. Please
make Shure that you are not posting emails from ACB on this list serve. This
information comes from a different source and that would be fine. We did
have a long communication on this issue a few years ago. I do not think they
would want us posting to there list serve either. This is a request because
we did have several problems in the past with that.

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want;
blindness is not what holds you back
