Oh, Shelly, how could you forget Lewis, the behind-the-scenes Bookshare
Engineer!  You forgot to mention Guido's offer to dance with Judson after a
few drinks and Gustavo trying to pull away Lewis from the huge dessert
display case.

Oh, Cindy, believe me some of it is literal, smile.

I met up with Pratik, Guido, Donna Smith, Louis, and Gustavo, at the 
Pittsburgh ACB convention what was it two years ago, and I honestly don't 
think Cristo's Greek Grill will think of blind people ever the same way 
again.  Was quite a lot of fun, and not a lot of alcohol, not really smile. 
We were their only customers that night but we stayed three hours, and had 
all the courses, including dessert, yum, and talked of a lot of things 
including Christian Romances from the nether region, smile.

But it was fun, and getting there was great too, as I think Gustavo was the 
only one who was normally sighted out of the group.  But such fun, and 
Guido, is really that interesting in person.

The vision must be followed by the venture. It is not enough to
stare up the steps - we must step up the stairs.

Kasondra,

As you can probably tell by now, things here on the
list get pretty crazy before conventions. The party
hats and other things that guido probably will bring,
like bottle of wine and stronger stuff to drink to
Marissa's health are probably virtual. Everybody seems
to have so much real fun, ithough, as well as virtual
fun -- and sees so much new and wonderful technology
-- and now IBM is having job interviews.  Wonderful.

Have fun all of you. We atay-at-homes will miss you.
(Maybe you'll find a replacement for Marissa there --
I  nominate Carrie, though,m or doesn't she want a
full-time job.)

Cindy
