Terri, is this what you are doing for a job the transcribing? Do you just save 
your on your bn or pc that way you can just re e-mail it if it gets lost? I 
just thought of transcribing all those Bible versions and no wonder you like 
doing that if transcribing interests you.  I've learned that transcribowingx and
scanning don't interest me, but haven't done much proofing.  humm with the bn 
now that I'm thinking of or planning really, on joining bookshare, I may give 
that a shot.  I take it there are people who do make their living at it and 
work for agencies or businnesses?
