Wow, Terry, so glad you and your partner weren't killed! That sounds like a
really scary accident. I hope the two of you heal quickly.

Evan and all,
I tried the Word format option for getting a book. The book came a
couple of
hours later with an email attachment with a link. It worked well. I use
a
Braille Edge from Hims which is a 40-character display and so I
requested
the book come in that format. I requested computer braille.
One other thing. Does anyone know whether Farar, Straus and Giroux is
sending books to Bookshare? It seems to me that for a while they were
and
that maybe now they aren't. I ask because Several of their recent books
are
not showing up on Bookshare.
While the bottom of my email boasts of my tandem biking prowess, my
partner
and I were in a serious accident recently. I'm in one piece with
abrasions
which are sort of like burns from being dragged with the bike over the
ground (I being in clipped pedals) but my partner has one pelvic bone
that
is partly fractured. So be careful out there. It's the other driver
that is
the problem!
One funny thing though. We were both knocked out and while in that
state
numerous tests were done on our brains and bodies. I'm age 71 and he's
age
69.
I recently played with the iOS app Seeing Eye AI which can judge the
age and
other attributes of a person at whom you point the iPhone camera.
When I pointed at me, the older one, it said Man age 61, neutral. When
I
pointed the camera at him, the younger one, it said: man, age 71,
happy.
Here's the funny or ironic part. The tests done on us reveal that
internally, I'm older than he is in that I have some of the aspect of
an
aging body. So, don't judge a book by its cover! I hope the above
wasn't
confusing!

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Paragraph Indents Are Back
Hey Guys,
Just downloaded four books this morning and was happy to discover that
paragraph indents have been restored in brf files.
The most recent book I got previously, on October 13, was still missing
them, so presumably something happened between October 13 and today.
I hope Amanda will shed some light if she can when she gets this.
Evan
