Hi All. Yes! It really is! He was a great help to me when I was having problems with Kurzweil and Bookshare. At that time, I was on the volunteer list.

Hi all,
I didn't realize that Peter wasn't working for Bookshare anymore. This is truly sad.

Dear John,

Your queery makes me sad all over again. Peter isn't associated
with
Bookshare anymore. You are right that he's an extremely reliable,
helpful
person. I hope this change leads him to a situation where he's
happy and his
talents are put to good use.

Below my signature is the letter he wrote to the Bookshare lists
explaining
his decision.


Always with love,

Lissi
Hey all,
I thought I'd stick in my two cents before the
spin machine takes over.  After a 15 year
association with Benetech and Arkenstone before it,
I have resigned my position as Technical Projects
Associate with the Benetech Initiative.  The lack of
sponsorship to go to CSUN was just one symptom in an
increasingly hostile and counter-productive
relationship I've had with the current senior
management of Bookshare.  While the immediate
reaction from management was to turn off all access
to my account, even my access to read books, I still
believe it to be a fundamentally terrific service
and one worth supporting.  I believe it is current
management's misunderstanding of me as a person
which, undoubtedly, led to the inference that I
would use my knowledge of the web site's underlying
code to do damage to its content or its user
records.  As I've indicated, I have total support
for Bookshare and the rest of Jim Fruchterman's
visions.  I hope that he will one day be able to
find senior  management worthy of them.
This does not mean you won't be seeing me at
conferences such as CSUN, NFB, etc.  My associations
in the world of Accessible Technology are
long-standing and still of great interest to me.
Thanks.

Peter Scialli
