Hi Bill: that computer swap sounds interresting. Don't forget to tell
me about it. About Braille, you are right. Who knows what might have
been. Guess both of us were born too early, but I wouldn't be a
teenager today for all the tea in China or anyplace else for that
matter. What seems to be killing schools like ours is the cost of
textbooks today. Do you realize that a standard textbook in Braille
consisting of seven volumes costs $900? Who in the world pays that
much for one text? Interesting problem right?
