Hi Evan, for sir rebuttal: I also didn't want to get into a big argument over this issue. What ever gets you through the night is all right with me (John Lennon.) However, it was your

Hi Group, OK, I'm the culprit here!  I am the one who wrote the corrective post concerning Brian's original post. I used to be a tutor of sorts--instructing blind people in everything from Spanish

Good morning, totally agree with you Victor. When I was sighted in the 80’s and through my university years, sure I had plenty printed books for study and I also had several audio books so I can
