RJ,

Did you have some specific area in mind?  It's kind of hard to remember
everything.  From what I recall I believe there is work being done in the
deaf/blind program.  Also, DBS and the NFB are attempting to procure funding
for the Newsline program beyond 2011.  Also, DBS is trying to avoid being
put under Voc Rehab where we would probably be lost among all of the
different programs.  Perhaps others will have more on your question once
they return home.

Thanks,
Jim

What was your take concerning the direction of the division of blind 
services? RJ
