[Blindtlk] Directory Assistance???

I always believed that blindness was no reason to try to get out of paying
411 charges. This is especially true now that printed telephone directories
are on the wane. But even before that, I figured I should pay for the
service just as I pay for some road repair even though I don't drive a motor
vehicle.

Different strokes, etc.

Also, adding to what Mark says, if you are a client of an agency for the 
blind, you can also get an agency staff member to sign off on the 
application.
