Lori and others,

I know CNN and MSNBC ran stories on the Blind Driver Challenge too.  It
is nice to see writers like Donna, though, who have the opportunity to
relay the story from the perspective of a blind person.

I was disappointed that The Today Show did not touch on the story at
all.  I would say a blind man driving a car at the Daytona Speedway is a
rather news-worthy story.

I notice that many Federation stories go unnoticed by major news
syndicates except for those on the east coast that have a working
relationship with the Federation.  A lot of our stories and initiatives
are rather big in terms of world events and human interest yet we do not
always get the proper attention.  Wonder why?

Thankfully, we have people like Donna, and others, who are dedicated to
"getting the word out."
