OK, WELL MY ONLY ANSWER TO THIS I'M AFRAID IS TO PUT TOGETHER
PRACTICAL DEMONSTRATIONS OF WHAT THE MAC CAN DO FOR ACB'S MAIN MENU
AND OF COURSE, I KNOW THAT fello list members have done exactly that
along with other people. Dense is the operative word here, I'm told
that after someone had prepared and had broadcast an interactive
demonstration on ACB'S Main menu programme, he was accused of lying
and staging the whole thing, those attitudes I'm sorry to say are
just not worth addressing and thankfully, I believe that sort of
nonsense is only preached by a minority of idiots within an
organisation.

Josh, I find it strange that lots of folks at ACB are so dead set
against Apple, no matter what we say or do, they are turned off by
Apple, and yet they haven't come up with a concrete reason, other
than the fact many in the organization believe that Apple doesn't
listen to our concerns. I have written, privately to Chris, Mitch,
and others, and are waiting to hear their response to me. Our state
convention is forthcoming in October and one of the things Sandy
Sanderson has requested is that I give a brief demonstration with
VoiceOver, and I have offered to set aside time for those
participants, including our rehab counselors and representatives, to
provide a "hands-on" experience with VoiceOver, using my iMac and, if
there are enough people interested, I will will bring my Mac Mini and
a monitor for persons with some useable vision. Unfortunately I
won't have my Mac Book before then, but I didn't think it would
arrive by then, anyway. In my letters to Chris, Mitch, and others, I
expressed my hope that ACB will not hinder the progress and gains we
have made with Apple since 2003, and perhaps even farther back.
