How to use Audacity, the free audio software, for the blind. My blind friend is going to be making some podcasts and will be recording interviews using Skype. He will be editing the interviews using Audacity. I was stumped the other day when I was trying to teach him how to use the program. He couldn't see and I had to quickly learn how to use the keyboard. My goal is to make it easy for him to use Audacity.

This is a little story is true. It is about being ready to kill with a 44 magnum. About 25 years ago I learned that it is not a good idea to mess with a dad when he is caring for his child. His instinct to protect is very very high.

How much is Ancient Kauri? What do musical instrument makers say about it? How big is it? Where does it come from? What do professional woodworkers say about it? What does it look like? Do you make plywood and milled products out of it? Is it expensive?
