Robert,

I don't know why they didn't post to TABI; pretty poor behavior for a group
supposedly receiving money for "community outreach" (either from DBS or from
donors, it's one of their claimed activities).  It's the newest, most
advanced technology, to hit the blindness world in quite a while, and they
can't be bother to post a schedule on our local mailing list as to when it
will be demonstrated?

Thanks Owen; if you hadn't posted those times, I would have shown up during
the event a little later, only to find it had already happened.

Chip

I assume by LBB you mean Lighthouse of the big bend,  Wonder why it wasn't 
posted to Taby?  It's a little late to schedule transportation for to-day.
 and most people don't think of LBB being open on Saturday not to mention 
most Blind people aren't fastbook freeks.
