Shayla,
Did you meet the Bookshare staff when you walked by, or did you think they
were too busy?

I walked by the Bookshare table in the exhibit halls yesterday--you guys
were swarmed! I heard many positive things being said about Bookshare and
us volunteers, and half the vendors in the hall were using Bookshare book
compatibility as a selling point for their products.
I forgot how many dogs there can be at CSUN. Though for my book the cane
users are the biggest hazard. Tip from me to you--if your cane strikes
something doNOT whack it and keep walking. It might be someone's DOG. My
poor girl. Oi. Blind people.

Gently they go, the beautiful, the tender, the kind;
Quietly they go, the intelligent, the witty, the brave.
I know. But I do not approve.
And I am not resigned.

Ring the bells that still can ring,
forget your perfect offering,
there is a crack in everything,
that's how the light gets in.
