<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial><SPAN class=109363621-28092010>Okay, Bob Rasmussen
has mentioned Optical Character Recognition... and that is not precisely what
this is about... but it opens the door for me to send you all this amazing bit
of email I just received. I already checked it out and downloaded the thing.
AMAZING! If you want to be ahead of the curve for once... and ahead in a
huge, new area of development... just look at how the Kindle from Amazon has
exploded on the scene and you'll have an idea of the importance of
this opportunity I'm sending you. It's from my buddy, Ray
Kurzweil. (Well, I don't know him personally, but I've been right with all his
developments for the past 35 years, and I've greatly benefited from following
along...) Just go download this program and install it. Take all the
default answers. It's dead simple. But, it will put you into the
future of nothing less than READING and how it will be done from now
on. The kindle? Why buy a *device*, well other than to carry around
something very portable. But why not instead just use your computer (laptop) to
read the books you need/want to read. Do it with your eyes or your
ears!!! This is a wonderful advance for everyone. Mark my words, this
is major. I have no idea how much books will cost or do cost... they
mention a million available! This appears to be tied into all the huge
publishing houses... and why not. Finally, we can really stop
wasting/killing trees and still do the same kind of book we all like,
pictures, charts, words, etc. I hope you don't mind me taking the
liberty of sending this to my group of friends, but we have always
been ahead of the curve on most technology, and this will help keep us all
in that enviable mode. Five years from now, you'll all thank me for sending
you this. Go ahead, take the 2 minutes it took me to download and test
this program. You're all really luckier than I am... while it worked
amazingly well for me, the true "accessible for blind people" version will be
out in October... so I will need to wait a few weeks for a full package I can
use. YOU don't have to wait. Yours is here now.... and it is
FREE!!!!! Are the books free? No. Have they ever been? Not that I've
found.... this is just a new way to read them, and you don't have to buy a
Kindle. </SPAN></FONT></DIV>
