Hi Derek

I was just wondering, are there many companies, other than those who deal 
with access equipment, that have braille catalogues?

>derek, logic has nothing to do with it! you were refering to
>discrimination,

Correct I  don't agree with discrimination, sorry.

YOU appear to feel that it's ok to force blind people into
using  internet shopping, I say  we should have a choice, just
as  sighted customers have choice.

You surly agree we should have choice use airline wheel chair or walk,
so it's  just same with how we shop, there should be a choice. Uuse
Braille catalogue, use internet, use tape, use print.

I mean  are you not aware stores like  Tescos, Sainburys  Asda  and so on
offer  staff  help in the stores,  for all blind and  disabled
customer. so  would you  support them if they were to say:

"you have internet, do your  shopping that way as it's  less costly
for our  company"
So just same sort of thinking  when we talk about Braille.
Maybe you  are happy with no Braille because you  are able touse tapes,
and  very  confident with internet shopping sites, but do think of oruthes.

Regards,
Derek
