[Ohio-talk] Fighting your Battles

[Marianne Denning]

Colleen, I don't usually ask for a braille agenda but in the case of
an organization where members earn their livelihood by providing
services to people who are blind, I don't think that explanation is
necessary.  By the way, Megan from Toledo was there and I asked her
about teaching braille at the Cleveland Sight Center.  She said they
teach braille, but usually only the first 10 letters of the alphabet.
I think we should only teach the first ten letters of the alphabet to
all students from now on.  If you can't make your sentences out of
those ten letters then you just don't need to say it at all.
