Been a bookshare subscriber for about 3 years I guess.  It's 
Terrific.  No more waiting for a book to be published in an 
accessible format.  Definitely one of the benefits of modern 
technology Granted there are still things we don't have access 
too but it's a dern site better than it used to be.
Yall stay w/m now
