Hi Gene I am one of those born that way with rlf/top. Brian Sack rider

That's an interesting observation. I am of the generation where blindness was mostly caused by giving too much oxygen to premature babies. I was told years ago that more children are born now who

Hi Group, I am a bit strange with Thunderbird. (OK no comments from the peanut gallery.) Most blind people don't like this, but I like 'spell check as you type.' This can be turned on

I once was called a hopeless case by someone who did not even know me but went on gossip. No one should ever tell anyone that they are hopeless. It could be them. Things that you say can happen

I was made fun of on e-mail lists for a monotone on my greeting and name announcements. So I took a course called Senior Voiceovers, where you learned how to have voice inflexion and do commercials

I just purchased an Orbit Reader 20. I am waiting for it to arrive. I am very excited! I worked at ATANDT for a while, and I have recognized someone writing like a hearing impaired individual. But

Een I was in comfuter training, I asked my teacher to teach me the VersaBraille. I thought that was the greatest thing when I saw a braille display word processor. She told me that I could not learn

I, too, have an Optacon. I seldom use it, because it is so slow. It takes concentration. But it is an antique. Yes, Richard Oehm is super great! Jan Howells

I use thunderbird for my email. Brian Sackrider

 thanks donna

Kerryn, Yes, Microsoft oneNote is accessible when using voiceover. I have never used the app, so I can't describe how to use the app. Donna

It is most unfortunate that educators are no longer teaching braille the way they once did. But it is also unfortunate that many educators at Blind schools and elsewhere limited their students to

I don't know who, if anyone on list might be competent to deal with some of these problems. I know you have a bad view of blindness advocacy organizations. However, much of what you said you wanted

If so, then a discussion in using the Thunderbird spell checker might be a good idea. I don't use Thunderbird, but I would think the spell checker would be similar to those I've used in other

Hands to read, hands to type - wouldn't give up JAWS for Braille - time and place, etc.

It is far more useful to discuss possible ways of improving the situation rather than, and I'm sorry if you object, labeling someone with no real diagnostic work. If you label someone by saying he or

I hope he does too. My sighted husband is astounded by Richard, just can't understand how he does what he does. Since he has an electronics background, he has enjoyed phone conversations with Richard.
