Hi charlse.
I'm just wondering about some of these catagorical statements you make.
For example "Why use a device to read labels when braille works better?" how
is braille labelling better exactly?
Using the pen friend I can record labels as long as I like. if I want a
label saying "indiana jones and the temple of doom extra documentary" and I
want to stick it on the little inch square insert by the disk in the main
indiana jones box set, ---- well I can do that. I couldn't with braille. I'd
neeed to write a label saying "ind 2 ext" or something like that to fit into
that space.
I'd have to prat around with a pare of scissors chopping out labels. The
penfriend barcode lables are peel off and stick on.
"why use a device when you can use your fingers?"
Why use a truck to carry heavy loads around when you can use your back.
I'm not anti braille by any means, however Charlse it seems that often your
statements about braille are simply catagorical. You think braille is
clearly the best option because it is, fullstop, end of story.
Well fair enough your entitled to an opinion, however it really isn't
helpful to a debate to just throw out catagorical statements like that with
no reason behind them.
I'm not anti braille by any means, but neither do I believe braille is the
best alternative simply because it is. Braille has good and bad points like
anything else and if we're going to discuss them I'd prefer a real
discussion please.
Beware the Grue!
Dark.
