[stylist] November's Monthly Telephone gathering- a very good interview

[Robert Leslie Newman]

Just to let you all know- Patty wonders if she was counted in the total, the
18 callers that I quoted as having attended the gathering. Well --- from the
Free Conference call site, I get a summery of the call. And what they give
me is the total number of callers, the total number  of minutes of all
callers, the telephone numbers of each caller and the minutes that caller
had been in the conference. 

And yes, we will look at doing the PODCAST bit. And I'll also send out the
phone number and access code that you can use to call via your phone to get
to a copy of the recording of the gathering; and so you can listen to the
meeting; after it all happened.

The phone conference was wonderful!  I am uncertain if I was counted amongst

the attendees.  My fingers moved too slowly over the keys as I dialed in. 
It had started when I got connected; the charge ran out too early.  I must 
buy a new "regular" apparatus!

I was "Blind Educator of the Yeear" in 1991.  It was my first convention; it

was in New Orleans.  What a shock to be so honored!Do you believe I should 
write a piece for"The Monitor" about retirement in Jersey?  (I was in New 
Mexico--and I knew Fred Schroeder then.

The meetings are always thought-provoking!
