Easy to get the actual recordings off but if you put music on it's hard to

LIST DESCRIPTION.
Are you blind or visually impaired and tired of being on a bunch of
different mailing lists
because each list will only let you talk about one topic? Well those
days are over. This list is for
blind and visually impaired people to talk about their disabilities
and ways to overcome them
and for people who can see to talk about blindness and visual
impairments as well as what
causes them and how to prevent them or lessen their effect on blind or
visually impaired people
as well as their friends, families and coworkers. We can talk about
adaptive technology(
hardware and software) from Humanware, Freedom Scientific, Hims, Apple
and other
companies. As well as that, we can talk about which websites are and
are not accessible to
blind and visually impaired people who use screen readers or note
takers to go on the internet.
All kinds of accessible games can also be talked about. We can also
talk about the basics like
orientation and mobility and braille. It is ok to talk about anything
to do with blindness. The
topics listed here do not have to be the only things we talk about.
They are just some
examples. If you are blind or visually impaired and want to learn how
to make your life easier
and more fun or you are a person who can see and you want to learn
about blindness and
visual impairments as well as what causes them and how to prevent them
or lessen their effect

GENERAL GUIDELINES
Please keep the subject lines up to date with what is being talked

If you have a question you want to ask or you want to say something

you have digest mode on
and you find a message in the digest you want to reply to, please
change the subject to
something more specific then the subject of the digest email, for
example- re: erasingblindness
Digest V1 #6. Cut the other messages out of your reply and just leave
in the message you are
replying to so that you do not end up forwarding the whole digest to
the list. That way, list
members who have digest mode off do not need to read through list
emails twice. I do not want
any members of this list bossing or attacking any of the other list
members. If anyone feels like
they have been bossed around or attacked by anyone else on this list,

make your life easier
and more fun or you are a person who can see and you want to learn about

GENERAL GUIDELINES
Please keep the subject lines up to date with what is being talked about
in the message bodies.
If you have a question you want to ask or you want to say something and
it does not fit in with
any of the current threads, then please start a new thread. Also, if you
have digest mode on
and you find a message in the digest you want to reply to, please change
the subject to
something more specific then the subject of the digest email, for
example- re: erasingblindness
Digest V1 #6. Cut the other messages out of your reply and just leave in
the message you are
replying to so that you do not end up forwarding the whole digest to the
list. That way, list
members who have digest mode off do not need to read through list emails
twice. I do not want
any members of this list bossing or attacking any of the other list
members. If anyone feels like
they have been bossed around or attacked by anyone else on this list,
please email
blindnesseraser@xxxxxxxxx and tell me about it so we can try to sort it
out.

mailing lists
because each list will only let you talk about one topic? Well those days are
over. This list is for
blind and visually impaired people to talk about their disabilities and ways
to overcome them
and for people who can see to talk about blindness and visual impairments as
well as what
causes them and how to prevent them or lessen their effect on blind or
visually impaired people
as well as their friends, families and coworkers. We can talk about adaptive
technology(
hardware and software) from Humanware, Freedom Scientific, Hims, Apple and
other
companies. As well as that, we can talk about which websites are and are not
accessible to
blind and visually impaired people who use screen readers or note takers to
go on the internet.
All kinds of accessible games can also be talked about. We can also talk
about the basics like
orientation and mobility and braille. It is ok to talk about anything to do
with blindness. The
topics listed here do not have to be the only things we talk about. They are
just some
examples. If you are blind or visually impaired and want to learn how to make
your life easier
and more fun or you are a person who can see and you want to learn about
blindness and
visual impairments as well as what causes them and how to prevent them or
lessen their effect
on blind or visually impaired people as well as their friends, families and
coworkers, then please
join this list. This list is in English. Also check out the Erasing Blindness
Blog that goes with this
list at www.blindnesseraserblog.wordpress.com. If you have any questions or
comments about
the Erasing Blindness Mailing List and or Blog, please feel free to email
blindnesseraser@xxxxxxxxx. Thank you. End of list description.
GENERAL GUIDELINES
Please keep the subject lines up to date with what is being talked about in
the message bodies.
If you have a question you want to ask or you want to say something and it
does not fit in with
any of the current threads, then please start a new thread. Also, if you have
digest mode on
and you find a message in the digest you want to reply to, please change the
subject to
something more specific then the subject of the digest email, for example-
re: erasingblindness
Digest V1 #6. Cut the other messages out of your reply and just leave in the
message you are
replying to so that you do not end up forwarding the whole digest to the
list. That way, list
members who have digest mode off do not need to read through list emails
twice. I do not want
any members of this list bossing or attacking any of the other list members.
If anyone feels like
they have been bossed around or attacked by anyone else on this list, please
blindnesseraser@xxxxxxxxx and tell me about it so we can try to sort it out.
ABOUT ATTACHMENTS
If you have an article, document, game file, short audio file or anything
else you would like to
share, please do so. You can email any file type as long as it is not a
virus. Total message size
is limited to 5 MB. This includes your attachment as well as what you write
in your email.
Please note that people who have digest mode off will receive attachments
sent to the list, but
people who have digest mode on will not receive these attachments. For people
who have
digest mode on, if there is an attachment that was sent to the list and you
want it, please email
blindnesseraser@xxxxxxxxx and I will send you the attachment. I will never
turn digest mode
on for myself on this list. For people who post attachments to this list,
please say in the body of
the message that your message has an attachment in it or put has attachment
as part of the
subject line. That way, people who have digest mode on will know that there
was an
attachment posted to the list. Attachments are also archived and only
attachments known to
carry viruses are filtered from them. Thank you.
