William,

     Have I noticed in Marshall's message that he wants both to condescend
to us because we're blind and defend us because we're blind?  He, himself,
says that we have existed in a power relationship with regard to the
sighted and that we've been on the negative side of that relationship.
Unfortunately, in opposing you're position, he then has the timerity to
 inflict that same state upon us with himself in (guess which position?).
What I find utterly fascinating about such crypto-totalitarian
positions is the way those imagining themselves superior
hypocritically condemn others for doing exactly the same thing.
There is no attempt at impowerment, here, simply the old "I'm
doing it for you're own good" repressive crap we've heard over
and over again.
