The Keybraille looks really neat.  I wish I had had some input into the
ordering of some of the equipment.  I'm supposed to be the computer
expert, but others are making decisions without asking for my
"expertise."  I have been fiddling with the Navigator and it will
certainly be a challenge.  It's supposed to have a means by which the
text on the screen is converted to grade two braille (called View 2),
and while I have it loaded through the .bat file, all I'm getting is
grade one braille.  Oh well, computers and periperials are well know for
being challenging little beasts, and somehow or another I'll get this
one figured out.  Sounds like you are making considerable progress with
your deaf-blind client.  I would have to think that computers and
telecommunications will open up all kinds of wonderful things for him!
The traveling sounds terribly expensive, though!  And thanks for
offering to message with my kids when they come on line.  When we get to
the Echo's portion of my telecom lessons, for sure you'll be hearing
from them.  So tell me, what other things have you been doing lately?
And how did the venison taste?  Can't say as I have ever had the
pleasure (?) of tasting venison.  Is it good?
