<DIV>Hello all;</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Here is another link with information about simulations. </DIV>
<DIV>If you are confused about me sending this link...I am a firm believer in
“gathering” as much data information as possible to make an informed
decision.</DIV>
<DIV>This does not change my thoughts about simulations as we can discuss at a
later time when we can have a “civil” and interactive disscussion.</DIV>
<DIV>What this time I have spent reading studies about simulations as fostered
and reinforced my belief that organizations like NFB has not “stepped up” in
educating the public to match needs of people with disabilities.</DIV>

In an effort to help our members better understand the negative sociological
effects of simulation experiences, I offer the following blog post by a member
of the National Federation of the Blind opposing the #hoeIseeit campaign of the
Foundation Fighting Blindness and the oppositional campaign of the NFB. Please
take the time to read the following blogpost and consider how damaging such
events are to the causes of the National Federation of the Blind in our quest to
remove the negative stereotypes and low societal expectations of the
blind.<o:p></o:p></P>
