Ok, first we have a subject line of waterproofing the Braillenote. Next we are all discussing Helen Keller, a noteworthy and highly accomplished human being, no one would deny that. However, what does this have to do with the subject of this list?

I received a cassette containing Helen Keller reciting the 23rd Psalm, and giving a speech in Australia, from the archivist at the American Foundation for the Blind. Her speech is quite understandable after awhile, although at first it's tedious to listen to. Sadly, I can't even remember the name of the archivist, as I forgot to even send her a thank-you. Now, my Helen Keller cassette is quite a bit more rare, as most of the Helen Keller archives were destroyed in the 9-11 attack. Linda, where have you heard Ann Sullivan? As A hobby, I collect recordings of famous people's voices. Anybody know where I can get recordings of Alexander Graham Bell or Albert Einstein? At 2, you wrote: >Boy does that bring back memmories!
