Well Kara we of course don't exactly have lobbies like the Us does over here
in Britain, ---- or at least not officially although the government has
various advisary bodies.
The problem however at least in britain is that most of the portrates of the
blind in media come from organizaitons like the Rnib who have one and only
one view, it is a problem.
This is acctually also why I would be interested to see some developers get
involved with other gaming communities. Retroremakes would be good accept
that the games on retroremakes need to be freeware, since then people would
know that blind people do play games and games with sound can actually be
fun.
As I've stated previously a key problem is that anything which is billed as
"for the blind" is automatically seen as different, specialist, and not for
"normal" people, since "the blind" are obviously some sort of weerd group on
their own who don't have much to do with the rest of the world.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
