Subject: Real Audio Broadcast of 1998 National Convention
Hello listers,
        As many of you remember last year was the first time that our
convention banquet address was broadcast via Real Audio over the Internet.
True the audio quality left much to be desired but the fact remains that we
did it, and thousands of net surfers came to know Dr. Jernigan, and the
national Federation of the blind through this broadcast.  We are curious to
know of pAt if plans are being made to do it again this year?  Look forward
to your responses.  now it's time for us to go to bed. Take care and have a
good week.
