Harvey:
I personally think you have taken this one to far.  The conversation, and
resolution started out dealing with our relationship with Seeing Eye.  You 
nd
up at the place of saying that we have done much to aileniate exhibitors and
vendors.  This had nothing to do with exhibitors and vendors.
We offer the exhibitors and vendors access to lots of blind people for a
reasonable price.  Closing the Gap, which was here last week charges over 
twice
what we do and doesn't have as many blind people there.
