[This is from the Blink Talk Conference]

Now Nick, I thought that Jericho Hill was God's gift to the blind.  But
then I seem to recall that they closed it down for a while, if not
forever.  Lui Greco of Calgary attended that school, as did Josette
Kernaghan who served on the Reunion Committee last year for the Alumnae,
she being a displaced Calgarian now residing in Vancouver and president
of the British Columbia Washington Guide Dog Users.  Somebody suggested
that Jericho Hill was transformed into a Deaf and Blind facility.  I am
not aware of a loan library in this area, but then again, never needing
it may be the reason why.  If you get a moment, could you call Calgary
CNIB and see if Lui is still working there?  I may braille him there if
he is.  Meantime, I will finish the mail and do some schoolwork for a
deadline of tomorrow at nightschool.  Will chat again.  TTYL
Bill
