Hi Jason,

Sorry I cannot help with the east campus route issue. It has been too long 
since I was at wMU I know there are a lot of hills, steps and yes I remember 
those intersecting roads. I like the idea of tactile maps. Years ago,  the 
Michigan Braille Transcribing Service down in Jackson did many maps for the 
universities. They were great in my opinion. I believe Michigan State still 
has there's. I don't remember if WEstern had one made at that time back in 
the  mid 1970's.

Oh, another thing I saw somewhere on a list that a  customer of yours was 
telling how well he liked the bar code reader and I believe a Canon scanner 
he  bought from you. Do you know what technology I am referring to??

I know many people are interested in technology and perhaps you may be a 
good one that could demo this during the general session or another time 
during our state convention.

I may have something to email you personally you may be interested in about 
java script.

Anyway, take it easy and please respond when you can.

Best,

Georgia Kitchen.
