[stylist] not another convention notice

Fri Jun 28 15:49:17 UTC 2013

Personally, I don't care about the abundance of emails. This is a
Federation sponsored listserve, so it's expected to see frequent
messages from the organization especially during convention season.

However, I see the point of those not going or not interested in going.
Not everyone joins the organization for it's actual purpose. And the
divisions afford a lot of people to participate in a area of interest
without having to be a part of the greater organization and it's greater
purpose.

Or perhaps some don't consider convention to be all it's cracked up to
be.

At the end of the day, deleting isn't that big of a deal though.

Well since we are all members of the NFB. Then whether or not you are
going shouldn't make a difference. The convention is going to be
streaming.  
Yes you can delete if you like, then if you do then how do you know what
you will be missing. Maybe next year you may want to go and help out or
go to a meeting etc.

on all of the NFB LISTS serves. Because of this I thought I would post
something a little different. I have started going to this poetry walk
group on Wednesday evenings. We take a little walk or hike in a
different nature type of lccation each week, at sunset and then create
at that time. We recite and polish. It is fun and inspirational. This is
the little poem I wrote this evening. When I say 'write' i mean put to
memory as I have no way of writing and reading without my laptop. This
actually is a great exercise for me to learn to memorize as I am not
very good at that. Well, I have attached above and will try to
