[Blindtlk] Fwd: Looking for Braille Catholic Bible

[Marion & Martin]

Mike,
    I once saw a CD-ROM that had fourteen different versions of the bible 
and a couple of concordances. I have been looking for an accessible version 
of the Metaphysical bible dictionary by Charles Filmore and haven't been 
able to find this. Maybe I need to get one and scan it!
