Robin,
We are just like a family here with different degrees of computing knowledge
and that is what makes it all great. Somedays you learn and somedays you teach.
It is nice to have you on board to help keep the ship afloat.
Have a great day,
Kurt

Goldfield for this list
Hi,
Perspective is an amazing thing. Having been a part of this list for the past
few months I’ve been struck by how informative it is both in terms of David’s
posts alerting us to various happenings in the tech and accessibility arenas
but also by the civility, kindness and compassion shown forth by the other
posters. It reminds me of the culture that could often be seen on email
listservs for the blind when I first came online in the late 1990s. A culture
which seemed largely to have eroded and given way to much drama in recent years.
this stark contrast was brought home to me tonight as I sat and read a post on
another list offering up an opinion on windows 10. this post and it's original
author nor its original source were not cited and those sentient beings who
dared to ask for clarification rather than merely accepting it as gospel truth
as some seem want to do were chastised for doing so. I tell this story to
further illustrate the stark contrast between this list and that which I read
tonight and it is what motivated me to stop what I was doing and engage in one
of my favorite activities I.E. being grateful and expressing that gratitude.
So with that I say to David and all participants thank you for this list and
all of the information and care that comes with it. I commend all for a job
well-done; and for insuring as the poet says that the milk of human kindness
has not run dry.
It is much appreciated.
And with that I return you to your regularly scheduled computing tasks of the
day (smile).
Robin
