Thanks Tami.
"Rays of hope in a world of darkness?"  When are we going to get past this
crap?  Amazing!  The girl can find a fork in her kitchen!  Gosh, however
did I manage to make breakfast this morning without this wonderful device!
And people using it to go rock-climbing!  Um, don't lots of students at
the Colorado Center go rock-climbing without some high-tech device?

Not picking on you Albert; you have no control over what reporters say,
and it would certainly be useful to be able to locate objects I dropped
without having to paw around on the floor for them,  but I just can't see
such a thing changing my life in a major way.  Maybe I'm just too
well-adapted to my terrible dark world.

Now, if I could use it to read signs quickly, or price-tags, or tell if
the walk-sign was on, that might actually be useful. With quickly being
the important word.

Tracy
