Thanks for your message. I don't criticize anyone for being a Federation member: I was for ten years and tried to reamin so despite the best efforts of the national state president to expel me! I prevailed against the effort at a state board meeting, but alas! could not do so at the national board meeting which decided to overturn the ruling of the state board. I still think the the philosophy of the National Federation of the Blind is the best one around on blindness; the great majority of its positions are great; its prioriities, however, and much of its processes are severely misguided. --Jamal-- -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!101!460.0!Jamal.Mazrui Internet: Jamal.Mazrui@p0.f460.n101.z1.fidonet.org
