[blparent] Texas

[Star Gazer]

				I just did. She's offering books that she
compiled out of free material in a screen reader friendly format, at least
according to her. We won't know until someone plunks down the cash. 
I'm not impressed. First, she refers to "the blind and visually impaired"
like that is the same thing. Second, and maybe this should be first, she
refers to those who are blind and visually impaired like objects. 
She does not appear to offer anything in Braille, nor does it look like she
even knows why that might matter. 
She does accept donations if anybody wants to do that, though it isn't clear
what the donations would be used for. It also doesn't appear as if her
company is a nonprofit which I think it should be if it is accepting
donations. 
That's all I know in a visit of about two minutes.

Has anyone taken a look at the web site mentioned below to get an idea of
what she is offering?  If anyone has time, I would be interested in your
take on this.  I am swamped at the moment.

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson
