Actually, Kathleen, I'm just under 40 and relied completely on Braille. But then, I went to Homai which is the school for the blind here in NZ until high school when we all had to type our assignments on those heavy old Olympia typewriter which ere euphemistically called portable! (smiles).. However, if you swung one of those (or even a Perkins) while traversing busy school thoroughfares, it sure helped clear the way.
