My apologies to those who already saw this on the vicug-l mailing list.

Although this series is not being carried by our NPR affiliate WDUQ, I
have added a link to the series to the TRFN People with Disabilities page

Portions of this series will be available via real audio.

Here is a section of the NPR website.
