But, yes, suppose if he's careful with either echo location, or something like a KSonar, - can't use the vOICe with house's lights turned off, except to find christmas tree with it's own lights - he could avoid knocking over something like a glass of milk..? OTOH, is the traditional, rather round shape of father christmas/santa claus based on fac that he feels it would be rude to not eat cookies, and drink milk left out for him - at millions of houses...in one night...? <smile> Jacob Kruger Blind Biker Skype: BlindZA '...fate had broken his body, but not his spirit...' ----- Original Message ----- From: Dewald van Deventer To: blindza@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, December 24, 2013 10:37 AM Subject: [blindza] Re: OT: Blind father christmas/santa claus Sounds scary. Just tell him not to knock over the glass of milk. We should give him a new name. Blind Santa. Or something like that. Dewald.
