Dear EASI,
This not one of our usual subjects, but I thought you might be interested in this PBS cooking show.

> Hi Everyone!
> 
> Thought you would all be interested in promoting a new PBS show call "Cooking Without Looking", that is apparently produced by a West Palm Beach, FL PBS station (WXEL-TV 42) and has been offered to all 350 PBS stations around the country.  
> 
> This is the first ever cooking show for the blind and visually impaired.  It began airing in the Florida area on Saturday, January 29th...twice each Saturday!  
> 
> Each week three blind hosts will cook and give preparation and other kitchen-related tips.  Blind or visually-impaired chefs will also be guests.  They will describe exactly what they are doing while giving personal tips for having fun and staying safe in the kitchen.
> 
> It occurred to me that this show would appeal to not only the blind, visually-impaired, but people with all types of disabilities and senior citizens...as well as the cooking-challenged!  I called KAET-TV, Channel 8 and talked to a Dennis (?), programming editor about airing the program in the Phoenix area.  He knew about the show, said it sounded like it would be of interest to a large market, said he would pass on my interest, and thanked me for calling.

> If you would like to have "Cooking Without Seeing" aired on KAET-TV, call the station (480-965-8888), and put in your request.  Spread the word!  Following is the management list for Channel 8:

>       KAET Management 
> Greg Giczi, General Manager 
> Beth Vershure, Station Manager  
> Eileen Shuman, Program Manager (or Dennis ?)

> Terri, Adele, Lora, Richard, Deb, Jay...spread the word!  Richard...put this info out to your EASI friends in other communities where they have PBS stations.
> Thanks!
