>> Way to drive people away.  Judith is absolutely right, I have too much

>> before.  You claimed my points were irrelevant to the discussion.
>> Bridget, those of us who are less perfect draw on personal experiences.
>> I compare a lot to motherhood because that is what I've been for 35

>> my daughter has class and doesn't waste her time putting others down
>> just so the world will recognize how great she is.  I know you have a

>> my degree, raised 5 good kids and had to cope with becoming blind as you
>> did.  I don't talk about becoming blind in general.  It is not what I
>> represent as a human being.  Blind doesn't begin to define Judith.
>> Neither does my white cane.  My cane is a tool to get me safely around
>> town.  From the discussion over the past week I assume a guide dog is
>> the same.    So Bridget, Take your perfection and pick on people with
>> the same narcissistic problem as you.  Judith
