[il-talk] Scott McIntyre

[Connie J. Davis]

I guess I've gotten so accustomed to the word blind, that sightless sort surprised me.  I never think of us in terms of sightless.

  What was interesting about the term sightless for you?

  Scott McIntyre, who was the blind contestant on American Idol is due to be 
  interviewed on the Big Show on WPLJ out of New York tomorrow morning. The 
  hosts of that show are Scott Shannon and Todd Pettagill. Scott also hosts a 
  channel called True Oldies, which streams out of our own WLS in Chicago. He 
  called Scott McIntyre sightless the other day. I found his terminology 
  interesting. We can find this broadcast streamed at www.plj.com from 5 a.m 
  to 9a.m tomorrow morning. They also have podcasts. It might be interesting 
  to see how they deal with his blindness. I would listen myself, but I will 
  be on northbound train for Chicago tomorrow morning. I may try to catch the 
  podcast.
