The dishwashing seminar is an event that happened at the Iowa Commission for
the Blind's orientation center in 1959.  It's a philosophical discussion
about blindness.  Atranscript exists in one of Jim Omvig's books.

This article was one I had not read before, although it brings back lots of
good memories and a few painful ones.  By 1977-80, the Des Moines Register
had turned against Dr. Jernigan and the NFB completely.  1974 was definitely
a good time to be living in Iowa, and I think that today is not bad, either.
