It is nice to see that I'm not thesingle blind person to have read 
"Shakespeare. Oh my some won't understand your allusion!!

Now that is pitiable indeed!

It is too bad in my mind that basics of allusion let alone metaphor are not 
widely known by the blind community. Why? Who knows.

But, ignorance only breeds more ignorance.
