HI, Paul.  Nice to have you on the echo.  There is another echo on the 
backbone which you might enjoy.  It is called "Silent talk" and covers 
topics of interest to the deaf community.  There are some of us hearing 
people  in it as well.  If your sysop doesn't carry it, you might ask him 
too.  It's not a terribly high volume echo.  A loot of people from this 
echo are there as well.  As for teh amiga, yes, it is a neat computer 
especially for graphics and such stuff.  I've heard its voice and it's a 
good quality one.  But you still need to get software to be able to read 
the screen.  Chip Orange has written a screen reader for the amiga called 
"Speakeasy".  It allows full access to the screen using an amiga 500 as 
the synthesizer.  I've heard it's very good.  
Well, hope to be hearing more from you via this echo and hope you can get 
into silent talk too.  Nice talking to you and happy bbsing.
marda
