Hi all. I wasn't sure where to put this so putting this in let's talk. Anyways how many of you have a radio reading service for the blind in your state? We have one here in ohio, well several and I really enjoy it. I haven't listened to it lately but it's wonderful.
For those of you that don't know what it is it's a special reciever that is sent to you free of charge when you subscribe to the service which is also free of charge. It's mainly produced by a group of vaulenteers that come in and read magazines, clips from newspapers, books, and much more! It is a great service and I encourage anyone that has access to one in your area to check it out.

Hey all, In the Philadelphia area we have RICB which stands for Radio Information Center for the Blind. They read newspapers and books. On Saturday nights, they have descriptive movies.
