What, you mean you can't see pictures of people's faces based on the way the rain hits them? I'm shocked--shocked. <g>


Incidentally, rain is kinda a bit disorienting rather than being helpful, for me anyway. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Elfqueen" <elfqueen@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

*smiles* Not a stupid question at all. This is where the line starts to be crossed between realism and myth. Lots of people have misconceptions about blind people's senses, like we're supposed to be superhuman or someething. We're not, but I can generally feel it if someone is really focused on me. If I'm not thinking about it I don't always, but I'm by nature very self-conscious, and maybe that's what makes me so sensative about it. I don't know if that's universal. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Grandma Cindy" <popularplace@xxxxxxxxx>

This is probably a stupid question, and perhaps I can guess the answer, but if you're blind how do you know people are staring at you?

decided I don't like to be stared at; frankly, I hate
it. T
