[nabs-l] Am I the only one?

[Marsha Drenth]

If you use the same soda machine every time, then put Braille labels on it
yourself. Ask a sighted person to tell you what is in the machine, make the
Braille labels with Dymo tape, and then stick them on yourself. 

We as students must start taking some of the accessibility into our own
hands. You can ask, you can beg, but if you get no results then do it
yourself. If you wan to change it, change it. And if someone says your not
suppose to do that, say I am blind, and I would like to know what is in the
machine to drink. 

Two cents

I think it should be illegal, for them not to put Braille labels where
they belong!
Doors, and vending machines, are two things, that need Braille labels,
so we can know what to do, and where we're going!
My main problem, is that they won't put Braille on the snack machines!
Blessings, Joshua
