From Paul W. Schroeder, Acting Editor in Chief

I apologize that we have not been timely in publishing the last three issues of AccessWorld. We care deeply about the content of this publication and we want to ensure that each issue meets your expectations for high-quality and comprehensiveness. With much regret, we have decided to designate this issue as the March 2010 AccessWorld publication, even though the content had been prepared for January 2010. Consequently, there is not a January 2010 issue.

I believe that this will allow us to put AccessWorld back on a more "doable" schedule and, hopefully soon, allow us to move to a monthly publication schedule.

Thank you for your patience with us as we work to provide you with timely and important content regarding technology access.

Deane Blazie A Look Back: Two Historical Interviews with Deane Blazie
In this issue of AccessWorld, we reflect back to 1987, when a young man with a vision put everything he had on the line and ended up changing the lives of the blind forever.
