[musictlk] Perfect Pitch?

[Joshua Lester]

Mrs. Jordan:
 Wow!
Well, I started this thread, so I can take a slight detour here.
I know it isn't for this list, but I just saw the term, that I
despise, with a passion!
"Visually Impaired," isn't a good term.
What's wrong with just, "blind?"
Also, "sight impaired," would be better.
Read my post on the difference between sight, and vision, on the Faith
Talk list.
Thanks, Joshua
