    FYI,

    See the attached letter from the U.S. Department of Education that calls for increased attention to the need for better instruction in braille.

    Professor Bell,

    Thank you for your help with this letter to the field.  It cleared today and I wanted you to be the first to have it.  I look forward to working with you again.
