>Kim Williams, President of the National Federation of the Blind of 
>Tennessee, said:  "As baby boomers age and encounter a number of 
>serious eye conditions such as macular degeneration, glaucoma, and 
>the effects of diabetes, the National Federation of the Blind of 
>Tennessee is reaching out to share our experience and knowledge 
>about low vision and blindness. Many seniors believe that the loss 
>of sight means loss of independence and quality of life. This does 
>not have to be the case so we are holding this exciting seminar to 
>teach and inspire."
