I assume that most of you saw the message from FSU yesterday.  They have
a blind pledge this semester, and were looking for a braille pledge
manual.  According to them, the National office did not have anything
available, but Rick Nyman said that he had access to a brailler if
anyone had the pledge manual on disk.  To my knowledge he has not found
one, but he is planning to contact the national office tommorrow.

What I was wondering was "Could you spare the time this weekend to type
in a page from the pledge manual?"  If we could get 50 members to each
volunteer to enter 1 page this weekend, Rick can make the braille
version to send to FSU early next week.

If you can volunteer, please let me know tommorrow or Friday.  If you
would be willing to do two or three pages, let me know, but I will only
assign one page per person unless the response is less than I expect.  I
will try to get page assignments out every few hours, and if you could
get the typed pages back to me by Sunday noon, I will compile them into
a single document and send it off to Rick.
