George, On one hand, I agree, but on anice interpersonal basis, and we are all family and friends, I think it is nice once and a while to go back down memory lane and review where we have been as a group. Although I see a number of names on this list that go back to earlier lists including the old JFW lite list, it is good to see that we have had a number of us who are obviously older and experienced with the many versions of jaws. think about it, some of us have been through 2 full versions of jaws for dos and now 12 versions of JFW not including the various upgrades. so let us memorialize and celebrate our successes as a group in at times an otherwise lonely world of supports.
that is a lot of neat history for a product that revolutionized our experience as blind folks trying to compete in a sighted world.
