To me, this would be cheating. You're not supposed to stop the puck with
your hands. I have heard that some blind people can hear the air moving the
puck, although I haven't noticed it. I haven't played the game in years. I
helped with the drilling of an air hockey table using a pattern from an
issue of Popular Mechanics for a neighbor's kids. I got fairly good with an
electric drill during the process. (grin)

Hi all,
I have two questions, the first one is OT, so please answer that
directly to me. Because I have recently become interested in ice hockey:
1. Sorry, but I don't know how American radio works, and the amount and
names of your stations are quite confusing. If they are allowed to do
this, I would love to listen to an NHL game, so can someone please tell
me if these are broadcast over the internet, and, because you guys have
so many stations, which station could I hear one on if possible.
2. Now to the games question. My dad and I were trying to see if I could
play air hockey, but it wasn't that successful because, as you guys
know, the disk blows and bounces all over. My question is, as a totally
blind person, do any of you guys play it successfully, what strategy do
you use. Do you think, if none of you have an answer, it would somehow
help to create a disk that could make some kind of buzz or beep while
it's flying, would that be a good way to play near evenly, or equally
against a sighted person?
Thanks
Ari
