[This is from the Blink Talk Conference]

About 4 months ago I put up a BBS, and in the process of doing so I
discovered that there were a few unique considerations when dealing
with BBS software and speech synthesizers.  I was just curious how
many blind SYSOPS there are out there.  I'd like to discuss how you
have worked around some of the problems that crop up for the blind
SYSOP.

I am running RA V1.00 with FD 1.99C and TOSSCAN 1.00.  I have found
them to be a good combination, and fairly user friendly with
speech.  Anyone interested in talking about this?
