Phil -

I don't believe so.  The old toll-free number no longer works and when I did
a full Google search, about the only things I found were the articles from
HandyHams about Dr. Tom.  He's well into his eighties now and I suspect that
the company has gone by the board.  I think it was always more a labor of
love for Tom than a real money-making operation.  I wish it were otherwise,
but from everything I've been able to determine, this seems to be the
situation.

There's one final option, I suppose.  Find Tom's call in one of the online
call books, snag his address and send him a Braille letter.  While I don't
remember it now, the address I saw when I looked him up a couple of months
ago was a post office box ... the same one, I think, that was used for the
company.
