Interesting or is it called entertaining,
I guess for blindness issues it depends on what folks want.
If a company is going to Braille for me, I accept that.
Where if we can't do something on the computer we bust their heads to 
get it done.
I don't understand.
I like the convenious of it.
Who decides on what we jump up and down over.
I am asking a question fare here.
I will keep writing Doctor Maurer over this.
