[nagdu] Professional pictures

[Doug Parisian]

Blood and gore all over the floor; and me without a spoon.

Just joined the list again after considerable absence and this is what I 
see, absolute shame on those throwing darts.  Strange how some blind folks 
demand understanding and acceptance without any reciprocity regarding other 
disabilities. Learning disabilities take many forms, perceptions of social 
situations, expressing thoughts and concerns accurately, etc etc.  YIKES!
