"The real problem of blindness is not the loss of eyesight.  The 
real problem is the misunderstanding and lack of education that 
exists.  If a blind person has the proper training and 
opportunity, blindness can be reduced to a mere physical 
nuisance."
-- Kenneth Jernigan (President, National Federation of the Blind, 
1968-1986

 The I C.A.N.  Foundation helps blind and visually impaired youth 
in Maryland say "I can," by empowering them through providing 
assistive technology and scholarships to camps and conventions 
which help them be equal with their sighted peers.  For more

Sheil et al,

What freaks people out even more, is when people hear that I am 
an avid
hunter and yes, use firearms very effectively.  What makes them 
step back is
after they ask how do you do it...I simply answer, sound shots!

Steve

Marion that is to funny.  Your right.  I remember our son's first 
grade
teacher asking me to come to her class and speak.  And she really 
thought
that oh no my god you don't use knives do you? I really don't 
know how she
thought I prepared foon for cooking.
