Marianne,

        That is, of course, entirely our prerogative, but I'd sincerely ask you 
to reconsider it.  Part of what I consider my "value added" is that I can 
actually construct, for instance, keystroke sequences for unknown/obscure 
functions in MS-Office programs because I can see feedback that JAWS and NVDA 
do not (I don't know whether they could not, but it wouldn't be particularly 
practical) provide "on the fly."  Tutoring is, ideally, a collaboration where 
each party actually has something that they can teach the other, at least from 
my perspective.

        It also really narrows your options, too, but that also is your call.

Brian
