Hi Richard and Others,

As far as something printable, you are right, but if you are a member of 
the National Library Service For The Blind And Physically Handicapped 
Free Reading Program, there is a Daisey accessible and downloadable 
version that is produced every month.

Visit loc.nls.gov and sign up if you aren't already a member and you 
could have this in totally accessible form.  You must be a resident of 
the US or it's territories to qualify with a handicapping condition that 
prevents you from reading normally.
