I have not had time to listen to this file, is it mostly Jim speaking?  If I
don't have to spend a lot of time trying to hear quiet people an guess at

but I make no guarantees, it may take weeks given my schedule.

Jim's talk is worthy of full transcription. You as a member of bookshare and
a deaf blind user particularly will get support from me on this one. That
talk is one of those things which needs to be in complete form to fully
express Jim's creative spark.
