I use Dragon naturally speaking version 8.  It doesn't work as well as I would 
like.  It misrecognizes more dictation and commands then I think it should.  I 
use it on a laptop usually in one of two areas of my home.  You might wanna 
check out Dragon's web site.  It is nuance.com and if you click on support, and 
then communities and then Dragon it should take you to a Dragon discussion 
forum.  Dan

Telephone chains are nothing new. They have been around for decades.   A very 
handy way to find out and keep and eye on loved ones.  Then cell  phones were 
created and long distance calls were free, for the most part.   Then once 
again, people became too busy.
There was a story about a person who started a phone chain on the  suggestion 
of their church elder, pastor or rabbi and called anyone on the list,  made 
sure they were ok and disconnected.  Before long the chain had grown  on 
referrals from other churches and organizations.  Some of those short  calls 
developed into longer conversation and lasting friendships. One of those  woman 
who 
was contacted 3 times a week by phone, chose upon her timely passing  to will a 
greater part of her fortune to the one person who took the time to  call her 
and see how see was doing all those months and weeks before she  passed.  The 
amount was quite substantial.  Kindness, or was it?

I
