[Nfbf-l] Covert Affairs

[Kirk]

Sherri, I tried earlier to explain and describe it to our friends, I guess 
it was not very well done! Ha HA! The best thing I liked about it besides 
not having to fold up my cane everytime I sat down or got in a vehicle was 
that all you had to do to realize there was something in front of you was by 
the different beeps it  would make. It truly was a very user friendly item! 
the whole unit was about 5inches long and  fit in back pockets for our 
gentlemen friends, or placed easily in our Lady friends purses! KH

But this is not a cane. It's a small Laser object that he just waves around
apparently. Maybe others who can see it can describe it better.
