Gean Aznar, if that's the right spelling, is often seen on the Blind
Tech mailing list. Its for discussion of technology plus other
things and is a world wide mailing list but gets very American at
times so I'm no longer on it for now at least. This guy is listened
to by many blind people and he is knowledgable. My mail probram,
Eudora, filtered out the forwarded message with his comments but an
E-mail to him with constructive points to his comments and info to
point him in the right direction may be a good start instead of
slating him from the off.

The problem is that the fools often are in a majority and thus can
spread their stupidity around. I agree with you that this guys
opinions probably are written in stone, and i don't know what we
should do or say in order for the Mac to get the credit it very well
deserves other than speak as subjectively as we can, admitting the
various bugs that are present and also present the workarounds to
those who are curious and willing to change systems.
I for one am glad i switched.

As soon as I read that he never even tried that which he is slamming
he lost *all* credibility. Sometimes I just don't think we should
protect the fools from themselves. If someone is that much of an
idiot, to self-admittedly bash a product he has never tried, no
amount of talking is going to convince him he was wrong to post such
things. Personally, I'm sick of this. Most blind people want to be
idiots? I say let them! The intelligent people will evaluate
products fairly, the fools will just spread FUD and other fools will
believe them. It's too bad stupidity is such a common element that
makes up our universe.
