Excelent. He sounds like a really awesome guy, and with a better
understanding of what blind people can do,I think he will create awesome
kits.

Now folks I have invited this fellow to our list and hope he takes up my  
offer.  I would love for him to teach a class, too, on his model  kits.  He 
can learn, share and teach what our abilities are.  So he  will be able to 
create his kits with a better understanding and challenge for  the blind.
