Hi, All,

Reading money:  Actually, I got pretty good at it.  Even with these =
newer bills, there is at least one corner where the number is =
exceptionally clear.  When my new Optacon comes, that is going to be the =
thing that I try first.

Yes, I have.  It can be difficult, and I always have to remind myself =
how to=20
do it.  The numberal is in very large font on the corners of a bill.  I=20
believe you have to use reverse contrast to read the number.  It is very =

difficult with older bills, but then "buck scan" in Open Book doesn't =
read a=20
lot of bills either.
