Pat,
i'm glad the situation was resolved. I know how it is to get hot under the
collar about accessibility and blindness-related issues. We can pray for
each other about patience in these areas.
Particularly, please pray for an access issue at work. It's a bit complex,
but it boils down to not being able to access a system everyone else has
been using for over five years. Everyone sems to be passing the buck.
Thanks.
