I have two questions. First of all, I have a fully hayze compatible
modem and I am using zmp which has been adapted for my CPM system.
The problem I am having, I believe, has to do with the length of time
that the modem pauses between the transmission of each line of text. My
computer starts reading the text and leaves out charactors at the
beginning of the next line of text. Does anybody know how to remedy this
problem? In case you haven't guessed I am working with speech output.
The second question that I have is not quite so complicated. Does
anybody know where I can get a presbyterian hymnal in braille?

Ciao !
My name is Mauro, I am 35 years old, Italian, living in Italy.
This is my story: I received a good education from 6 to 21 years.
Then I started working in the field of investment funds, with
good result, until 1986, when something bad took place; something
went wrong in my left ear and later in my right ear.
I went through all sort of treatment and now my degree of hearing
impairment is about 90% (with earing aid 75%).
The result is that I lost my previous job.
I thought about the situation and I came to the conclusion that I
should find a new job (with new skills) that I could carry out at
my house, in a noiseless environment and using tools and system
requiring limited or no hearing power.
I have spent three years trying to adapt to the new situation,
providing myself with a completely new education in the computer
science area (programming, etc.) and supplying myself with the
necessary equipment: personal computer, fax machine, printer,
modem, etc.
NOW I'D LIKE TO OPEN A BULLETIN BOARD SYSTEM FOR THE INFORMATION
IN FAVOUR OF DISABLED PEOPLE HERE IN ITALY NEAR VENEZIA WHERE I
LIVE.
I need to receive information all news about American BBS working
in social service area and anything that could be help to me to
implement my BBS project.
Thank you very much in advance for your help !
