[stylist] would it?

[Justin Williams]

What I h ave often heard is how parcially sighted people don't fit with
either group.  They can see as well as the sighted who consider them blind,
or at the very least, different then them.  However,  the totally blind
community, or thouse like my-self who have some vision, but who function as
totals, do not consider them blind because they function more closely to the
sighted in many instances.  -----Original Message-----

Yes Ben, I would suggest that the book for me would be more interesting if
you talked about both parts of you- the blind and the sighted. What I think
would be very important to all partially  blind readers, is where you speak
to the struggle that you must and may still have between your sighted and
blind halves.

Let's not get into the technicalities of words here.   Though I agree with 
Jim that just to say blind is fine.   Ben, write about both.
Maybe even in the same book.
