[nfb-talk] state con attendance

[Sherri]

I became interested in the NFB as a "younger blind" person and now I am an 
"older" blind person and I'm still here. I think that actually computers and 
the internet have greatly depersonalized human contact and many young people 
just don't see the point. Wow, that really makes me sound old.

I think it's going to vary a lot.  We had a fairly sizable group in Oregon
this year, but nothing like Colorado!  I think that it may be that we have
not done as well as we need to at reaching out to the younger blind as
perhaps we should.

I'm still within that demographic (although I guess I won't be for all
that much longer now), and I'm not sure how to gain and keep the attention
of people like me either.
