     Thanks for the explanation on the speech interface deal with Blue
     Wave.  I have heard that effect in the past with a friends speech
     system whereby the entire menu line was spoken.  Found it to be a
     bit annoying, but now that I understand why, it makes a bit more
     sense.  In time one would almost be able to ignore the extra text I
     suppose.  Take care.

          Steve

    If you're talking about a certain instructor from GErmany working at
    a certain guide dog school down south, I don't know how he didn't
    destroy that school before he was finally dismissed for good!  His
    tour of duty is legend around here.  There are a couple of people
    who continue to believe in him; but most are glad he''s no longer
    there.  Dave got all of his dogs from that school.  The first was
    trained by Mr. R.  He says that if he had known then what he knows
    now, she would have been returned to the school withone one week.
    She was a retrain, having been returned once for behavior problems.
    She was four years old, and killed two cats.

    He did manage to work with her, and did have a couple of
    working years
with her; but
it was only because of firm discipline.  She developed health
problems and had to be retired.  Dave and his wife had a small daughter
by then; and somewhere there is a photo of Ginter with her head in
Jenny's lap.  The next time he returned to the school he got Codie, a
very good dog; and now Goliath, the best guide partner ever.

    I might also make a comment
here regarding abuse of dogs, as discussed in the PETA Policies thread.
It had been my experience in New York that the few cases of guide dog
abuse I knew about were legitimate; and the persons who complained the
loudest were responsible dog users.  We did have a case ehre in
CAlifornia a few years ago in which an animal protection officer cited a
fellow for abuse, warning taht if the school would not remove the dog,
she would do so.  The school, feeling its back to the wall, took the
dog.  There followed several months of legal proceedings.  The charges
were proven to be false and the dog returned; but the fellow was at
least five months without him, requiring time to reestablish the
routine, and perhaps the bond.  All this over a valid, but misunderstood
correction witnessed by an over zealous animal rights activist.  I think
is part of the reason why more schools are changing their policies on
ownership.

Pam

    Even if Pompous PETAguide *could* follow most of those commands,
    your suggested meals would probably cause repeated incidents as
    Guidie leaped up and lunged at the table, knocking over the
    offensive poison.  This would, of course, be done for your
    protection!

    Terri, the image of PETAguide curled up under my
    desk was quite amusing.  Right now a little levity may keep us
    all from

losing it.

    If we had a penny for every time someone mistook one for another, we
    wouldn't *have* to rob a bank!  Too dangerous, and if you get
    caught, the food in those hotels where you don't pay rent isn't that
    good.  <g>
