I've read the manual, and no mention was made.   I think this
requirement is silly, at best.  The day I continuously scroll a
document will be the day after I get everything useful done.

PS the "feature" could probably be implemented on an updated rom if
the developer of the synthesizer chose to do so.  I have a feeling
this would be a feature I'd want to disable(speech slows down my
machine quite enough).

A blind high school student I know recently had the urge to drive his
father's car. Not being skilled in that art, he went on a short journey
which stopped only when portions of his family home were demolished to
the tune of thousands of dollars. I know another blind student who was
driving a three wheeler that met with an oncoming truck. The result was
a two month stint in the hospital. I also remember a student with low
vision who was killed in an automobile that he was driving.

Are these events restricted to Louisiana or do blind guys test their
driving skills all over the country?

As of yesterday I am the proud owner of a Quickie P300!  It was
kind of intimidating at first, but I'm getting along better with it
today <grin>.  This afternoon Whitebread and Pepper, our cats, both
jumped up on my lap (not at the same time!) so if they think the
chair's okay, then it is.  I got a Jay cushion and back and still
need to see my PT to see if they need any of those wedge gizmos
stuck on but so far I'm pretty comfortable.

It's interesting.  I feel like the way I move in it is a lot more
natural than with the scooter, for small things like turning a
little to face someone I'm talking with.  Also, I like not having
all that hardware in front of me.  I feel more like *I* am moving
rather than driving a vehicle.  Has anyone else experienced this?
All in all, I'm pretty pleased.

Hiya Ruthie!

Let's see now, the *generic* name is Trazodone HCL 50mg tablets.
Yes, I'm still taking them.  They help me sleep better.

 > My friend explained in depth how the anti-depressants help with

Well, as I was told in Birmingham, it's kind of a dominoe effect.
If you don't sleep well, then you have more stress, which leads to
more pain.  By sleeping better, the pain may be diminished
somewhat.  One side effect is a very dry mouth (and other parts).
But, this could also be in conjunction with the Flexaril, too.  It
also gives you dry mouth.

Hello Linda!

21 Sep 92, Linda Cummings writes to Jackie Burtch:

 >> what are the significant differences between

 >> tylenol 4
 >> vicoden
 >> percodan
 >> tylox

OK, here we go:

Tylenol No. 4....... A mixture of acetaminophen and codeine
Vicoden............. A mixture of acetaminophen and hydrocodone
Percodan............ A mixture of asprin and oxycodone
Tylox............... A mixture of acetaminophen and oxycodone

 >> what is the difference between oxycodone  vs codeine

 LC> Hope someone who knows will answer you about this.  I'm curious, too.

They are similar, but different drugs.  In one way of thinking
about the chemistry, they are both different modifications of
morphine, although codeine is a direct modification of morphine and
oxycodone is a modification of a related compound called Thebaine.
This results in slightly different effects, side effects, potency,
and duration.

 well you will have to convince uncle doug of the wiwsdom of that.  He
 seems to feel it is not a cool idea.  I have no opinion as I don't
 use vocal eyes as my primary speech package.  doug has done the best
 he can but it is not good enough. the driver for the audapter is slow
 to respond to commands and I am either too slow or two fast and
 between v e and the firmware in the audapter I can't find the
 conbination that is acceptable to me. so I use v.e. on the laptop and
 use flipper 306 as primary and starting to play with jaws 2.2 which
 could conceivably be my primary soon.

A high fluid intake helps keep the bugs down.  I try for at least
two liters or more a day.  Most of the time I'm pushing better than
a gallon on an average day and more in the summer.

Hi Mike breaking in if you do not mind!!! Yes RSD will spread. I
have met Mr. Lyons and he show all signs of RSD spreading. If you
want to now how I can tell it is I can tell you I also have RSD. I
got it 3 1/2 years ago in my left forearm. Dr Palmer told me I had
it, but his treatment was wrong. It caused it to get worse. Over
the years the RSD spread. I now have it in my shoulder's, knee's,
and in my jaw. Not only can it spread but it breaks down the bone
and muscel as well. An injury can make it spread. I got a cavity
and the pain alone caused it to spread to my jaw. Certian medical
tests can cause it to spread as well. Take EMG/NVS. That is a lot
of stress to the nerve. It is said not to allow a Dr. to preform it
if you now you have RSD.

Oh, I don't know. I can tell you when the sap is going up & down in the trees

If by "adapt" you mean using one of the FRED decoders coupled to
the side of your TV with the loop device they provide, then yes,
you can listen either in stereo or with the main channel mono
signal on the left and the SAP on the right, or just the SAP signal
in both left+right.  The FREDs work very well and are well worth
the fifty or so dollars' investment.

I don't have much experience with this one, but do have to use a
VT220 emulation to connect to one of my systems that acts like a
Mainframe.  Finding a communications program that supports that
emulation  was hard and it did take some work to get Artic to speak
with  it properly.

Good luck with the interview.
