In my opinion, today the blind person better have several careers just in case he/she runs into the same kind of barriers I did. I know, we have laws to protect us from that sort of thing today, but I don't honestly believe they work. If someone wishes not to employ a person because he/she is blind, they will find a way to do that. So I guess one best try and be as flexible as possible, with the hope that that flexibility will see them through. -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!377!6!Stew.Bowden Internet: Stew.Bowden@f6.n377.z1.fidonet.org
