I'm new to SL. I want to revisit the first place I visited. But, I can't find anything like it in the Showcase. The description said something about a place for people with all kinds of disabilities--although having one wasn't required--and was like a tropical island. There was a monkey by the name of Bob. Can anyone please help me find it? Thank you!

Hi Tweedy, welcome to SL! The place you want is Virtual Ability Island. Bob is our chatting monkey. He helps with our beginner's course, helping to teach people to chat. He really is funny and does chat back at you. We have a very good course for new people with disabilities and would love to see you there. I wil be sure to get you invited to the group so you can be in the loop there. I am on the board of directors for Virtual Ability, Inc. See our website at www.virtualabilities.org. I am on my way inworld now and will see if I can find you, if not, someone will, and soon.

Thank you, Rime. Seeing as how I am on the VAI board, you'd think I'd know these things, hmmm? Thanks for the correction, much appreciated. My 'main' goal that moment was to get ahold ot Tweedy inworld and get her where she was trying to be, and that, I did accomplish. :) Thanks!

Congrats to VAI on the prize! I've visited the island and I think it's brilliant.
