willing to code the game or something...

Hi Dark,
lol, your message made me smile, the part about the early humans.
To respond to it, if we are playing the what if game, if we had an
apocalypse we also wouldn't have the equipment for making frames and
styluses lol.
I suppose your right though, in an apocalypse I suspect almost all blind
people would probably struggle to adapt, and almost certainly starve to
death.
MM, interesting concept for a game perhaps?
I guess I just think that communication is so important that we shouldn't
turn our backs on a non technical means of both reading and writing, after
all how many blind people speak from the pages of history before braille?
How many could set there thoughts down without help? The answer, none.
Even great poets like John Millton were reliant on other people for setting
down there words and reading them back.
The important thing about braille over other skills that use technology is
that some of us could probably adapt, and at a pinch learn to cook on fires
etc, whereas we definitely couldn't adapt and learn to use a pen for writing
at any great length, at least not those who have been blind since birth.
Though I have heard of cases where people who lost there sight later in life
have been able to carry on writing with a pen and the aid of rubber bands.
It also goes without saying we definitely couldn't access print material in
a post apocalyptic world, and at least to my way of thinking braille would
be the only sensible efficient way of reading independent of sighted people
in that situation.
