Subject: [leadership] FW: TUESDAY TOPICS: PERSONAL POWER: A NEW WAY FORWARD
FOR COMPUTER USERS
This week on Tuesday Topics we will have as our special guest somebody
who I admire very much for what he has accomplished. He has made a huge
contribution in more than one area and what is perhaps most significant,
he has done so as a volunteer. Michael Faire has recently published a
book called Personal Power which is aimed at the new and not so new
computer users. The book is free and is available in a variety of
formats. He will tell us a little about his life, some about his book,
and a lot about what makes him able and willing to give as much as he
has to other blind people. I hope you will join us to hear from Michael
what makes a very special person tick as well as to ask him questions
about what is in his book. We well meet a little before nine on Tuesday
November 25th in the Politics Room. Here are some instructions about
how to find us and what to do once we are found.
Using a web browser, go to
http://www.conference321.com/masteradmin/room.asp?id=rs510b693fb11f to
enter the Politics Room.
There you must either download a small application if this is your first
time there, or go on to enter the room. The next screen has a spot for
you to input your real name and a password. Ignore the password. Just
enter your name and press enter.
The new room looks a lot different from the old one. Please take some
time and explore particularly the help menu and its accessibility
submenu.
If you cannot join us tonight, please listen starting next Monday at
8:00 p.m. eastern to hear this program on the mainstream channel of
ACBRADIO.
