Message-ID: <9334@bunker.UUCP> Date: 4 Jan 90 05:29:34 GMT Sender: wtm@bunker.UUCP Reply-To: sparks@cs.utexas.edu (Ed Sparks) Distribution: misc Lines: 23 Approved: wtm@bunker.UUCP Index Number: 6018 Greetings, My company, KVUE-TV in Austin, is considering implementing a computer Bulletin Board System (BBS) to serve the deaf and hearing-impaired community in Central Texas. The system will use a special TDD modem, enabling individuals equipped with a TDD to access the BBS. Does anyone know of such a system already in operation anywhere in the country, or of any BBS with a deaf/hearing-impaired SIG? Any information would be greatly appreciated, as would suggestions and ideas for this BBS. Please mail replies directly to me: sparks@kvue.UUCP Thank you for your help.
