[blparent] interesting revelation (Braille)

[Veronica Smith]

Smile, at my church as well.  Do you suppose they just put them there or do
you think they were there all the time and we just missed them? V

The problem is that if a blind person isn't familiar with a place and 
doesn't know there are braille signs, the signs might be missed altogether 
because they aren't usually in standard places.  I just recently found out 
that there are braille labels for the men's and women's restrooms at the 
church I go to, which meets in a school building.  I had felt for braille 
before and not found it, but the signs are located right in the middle of 
the door, which wasn't where I happened to be looking.  Go figure.
