hey, try the ever popular unplug the Answering machine, let it sit and plug it
back in. Works for ours. But I agree, I frankly wish i didn't have to scan
this thing, but say sur sarah.

Dear Shelley, Guido and Booksharian Friends,
Could I ever use a repository for scanned product manuals! My guess is that
Bookshare isn't it.If anyone knows of such a source, point me in the right
direction. There are more devices gathering dust in my house than I want to
count. For example, my answering machine has up and stopped taking messages.
Its unscannable manual might give me a clue of how to get it up and answering
calls again.
I'm basing my guess on a funny quote I remember of Gustavo's when I first
joined three years ago. A volunteer asked if she could submit a pamphlet and he
answered, "No, It's Bookshare, not Pamphlet share."
He was a guy who could make you laugh while he was turning you down.
Always with love,
Lissi

This may require Pavi's input/decision. Not quite sure if user's guides
for appliances qualify as valid Bookshare submissions. Let us see what she
says.

Am scanning the instructions guide for the new sewing machine i just got.
I
was wondering, if it would be useful for people on Bookshare as the Singer
is a pretty common model. if so, how do I report the fact that it is in I
believe English, Spanish and Portugueese, and do I need to keep the Spanish
and Portuguese translations?
