[Blindtlk] [Blindly] brailling or typing?

[Judy Jones]

The great thing about QWERTY is that anyone can type on your keyboard if you 
need them to.

Coming in a bit late on this thread of per usual. But I'm a brailler  using 
a braille edge to write this post to you fine people.  Been using braille 
since the first grade.  I am mildly dyslexic  and no matter that I've been 
typing since the sixth grade and have put some serious effort into it, it 
has never and I don't think  will  ever be as intuitive as braille is for 
me. Because of course that's a very personal thing. The manner in which we 
choose !communicate with others.
Thanks!
