Hi, Gwen, Kim here. I think it's safe to say you just crossed a hurdle here. Everyone, and I mean everyone goes through this process of learning something. I was learning to play the banjo and the style I was learning gives the notes a percussive sound when struck. I couldn't figure out the motion my right hand should take, and then one day, it was as if a light went off in my brain and I knew how it should feel to play using this style of playing. I have yet to experience lights going on in my brain with regard to scanning books, so I congratulate you for getting some satisfaction. I hope you will be happy with your efforts. I'm glad you are encouraged. Keep up the good work and have a great week. Regards, Kim. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: bksvol-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:bksvol-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of gwen tweedy Sent: Friday, August 28, 2009 5:59 AM To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [bksvol-discuss] something just clicked for me. So far I've figured out that junk characters need to be taken out, split words need to be fixed, pages need to be all there, and in order a with numbers. if it don't sound right or their are words like die for the, or if the page is just wow not readable, I do it again and again till it's right. Knowing all of this are steps, small to be sure, but steps, nevertheless. Now some day something else I may learn or something else may fit in that I say I can do this and it's done no biggy. Knowing all of this, if I'm doing my best, doing all I have been able to comprehend and learning new when I can, all I can do is hope that doing my best knowing that later I just may do a better scan, that a book can actually make it that is my goal to pass on books I love, and to boost the library in the way I can do it best. Now whether anyone can stand to proof them, that is their call, and I have to let the chips fall where they may and pray for the best, and that I'm not just hampering folks. Well that's my penny's worth thanks for reading and listening. One day I'll look back on these days and wonder why I made it so hard upon myself, but not quite yet *smile*. __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 4378 (20090828) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 4379 (20090829) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com
