When I am using my BN, I write in grade two.  When I know I am going to be 
putting addresses in that someone may need, I just write in computer braille.  
If I know that what I'm going to write doesn't translate well, I'll write in 
computer braille.  Basically, a person using a PC can read the e-mail.  
Sometimes, as people can vouch for, when I'm writing, it doesn't always make a 
good translation, grin!
