(I don't really watch TV much anymore.) I assume this was some form of assistive technology and not a bad joke. I am very interested in the use of computers to help the blind (as opposed to the visually impaired). Can you tell me (out of band if you'd like, directly to my e-mail address) what you saw. I am very interested.
Also, this to the list as a whole, is does anyone know of any attempt to help the blind in Lane County acquire computer skills and the ability to use the web. I am interested in this kind of thing. Thanks, Jamie, and to anyone else who cares to reply. Dennis Eberl
