Well, you are right.  They say that if you are on the list to
receive braille catalogs you don't have to request them again.
Like you, I have to continually to request my braille catalog.
But, I never have found the AFB really interested in the blind.
They seem to only look out for the AFB.  I always wondered since
they are suppose to be nonproffit, how could the organizations
which admit to being for proffit could undersell them.
