[Blindtlk] fw: seeking applicants for the Main Menu team

[Chris Nusbaum]

Hi Chris,

Can you email me off-list? I want to tell you about an initiative 
I'm working on to create a neutral blindness-related list.  My 
email is dotkid.nusbaum at gmail.com.

Chris

Merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous new year!

"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 
information about the Foundation and to support our work, visit 
us online at www.icanfoundation.info!

Mari,

I also agree with you.
Let's put the differences aside, and be happy that we as blind 
people are
producing shows that deal with technology, and other subjects.
I know that there will be people that don't like the ACB, and 
that's fine,
but me personally, I'm neutral, and I'm happy that both 
organizations are
doing what they can for the blind.

So again, can we drop the organizational differences for a 
moment?
Just my thoughts,
Chris

Mike, I hope by me stating the following I represent the rest of  
the folds
on this list.  WE are all blind or visually impaired regardless 
what entity
produces the show OR represents us.  I think it is very inspiring 
to see
those who are technologically savvy to share what they know with 
the rest
of us.

Merry Christmas!!!
Mari Hunziker
