Hi,
I talked to this guy a few hours ago. He is very respectful and sincere. I 
don't usually go for this kind of thing, but I was very pleasantly surprised. 
He's really trying to do a good thing with his research. I'd even go so far as 
to say to spread the query to other blindness lists that are associated with 
people who are blind who have jobs.

Thanks.

Jim

Hi Listers,

I helped John by doing an interview. Please consider helping him also. It 
didn't take long. He especially needs people in the Midwest and western parts 
of the United States. Please contact him.

Dear Susie,
                I am preparing a thesis, for my graduate program, that will 
document the many techniques, and adaptive equipment used by partially sighted, 
and totally blind people, to help them do their jobs.  I am developing a study 
based on interviews with people, as their answers will be credible evidence for 
my case study, that blind people are currently employed.   I am seeking to 
interview blind college professors, attorneys, and computer programmers.  I 
hope to interview people from all parts of the United States, in order to 
demonstrate an even distribution of employment for blind people.  My interview 
is approximately 15 minutes in length to answer the basic questions, which the 
study will address.  If you know any blind people currently employed in the 
fields previously mentioned, who would be in a position to assist me, please 
forward this message to them.  Thank you.
