[This is from the Blink Talk Conference]

Stew, rather than bringing you up too short, I'd hope that I could give 
you at least a little bit of room for a springboard from wich to talk 
about your views and perhaps let me know a little more about where you 
are coming from.  
For instance, in many schools today, someone with my amount of sight 
would be "forced" to learn print (if any of the articles I've read are 
any measure) but even though I'm not particularly crazy about the 
school I went to, I'm still glad that I learned braille as my major way 
of communicating.  However, I do wish that maybe I could have learned 
print in school as well.  As it is, I'm pretty much self taught when it 
comes to reading print.  
Bill.
