[Nfbf-l] State School

[Joanne]

I didn't.    Don't you agree that people can gather information other and still 
get results?

Dear Joann,

You did not answer my question?  What year did you attend the Florida O and
A Center?  You said,"I know first hand what a shambles the Daytona School
became after it was
> influenced by NFB's  theory of teaching independents to the blind."
First hand seems to indicate that you were there and observed with your own
eyes or senses what you are claiming.
When were you there and what did you see and how was it counter to what you
believe to be good training?
By your statement, you indicated it was the Florida O and A  Center and that
training suffered because of NFB Training and philosophy.
I am asking you to tell us what you saw, when and how it made training
suffer.

David Evans, NFBF and GD Jack.
