Hi Jackie In the interests of diplomacy, I won’t pursue this discussion too far. Suffice it to say that the overall standard of literacy and grammar these days is utterly appalling. That, I regret to say, is a trend which is set to continue. Those of us who had the basics drilled into us at school were among the fortunate. Computers and talking this, talking that and talking the other are all fine in as far as they go. They should not, however, be viewed as a substitute for literacy. Not, at least, amongst the very young.

They claim now though to have these daft changes in place so that it is easier with Braille translation software to have a unified code.
