Re: Crosspost: Question about new member
I don't see a problem I think teaching the sighted about Access
Technology is a cool thing.
I even had my dad who is sighted use Talk Back on his phone but he
said after a day he wanted no more to do

Re: Crosspost: Question about new member

Yes, AT instructors have to spend a week or two blindfolded so they can empathize and understand what it is really like. without doing this they aren't able to really understand what it is

Re: Crosspost: Question about new member
I agree with Brian. At one of the guide dog schools, one of the days all students have to wear a blind fold or night shade from after Breakfast to supper. This is generally a total of 8 hours.

Re: Crosspost: Question about new member
Well, unless there's some rule banning the sighted (in which case I should have been gone, long ago), I can't see this as a problem.

Re: Using hyphen
the first says "in dash". by line, word and letter. and the second doesn't say anything other than the two words by line and dash by word or letter. I wonder why it is adding the "N" sound
