Brian,

You should definitely try again. Sign up on the site
if you want to go up to L.A. again, or wait for the
bus to come around. Several of the people and my
"audition" or try-out or whatever you want to callit
came up from San Diego.

I don't think there can be too many blind
contestants--smile. It's good for the world to see
that there's more than one who can compete--and I
don't think they'd take you*jus* because you're blind,
but one can never tell. He's the only one I've ever
seen on the show, and I've seen two contestants who
were in wheel chairs, I think, or had some physical
condition where they had to sit.

GO For it! And if one isn't chosen the first time, one
can try again after a year.

Cindy
