Why not write to John off list, or if you don't know how, ask the list how to
do it?
It's quite clear to most people that this is a technology list, and what
subjects are and aren't on topic.

Hi,
Actually the dog toilet harness could be considered technology. Not all
technology is electronic, after all.

I quite agree with you. I have still to find out how to get into the

screen readers then I'm a monkey, it's absolutely rubbish.
As for their products, avoid like the plague if at all possible.
There are good products straight from the peg with a little thought
on our part can be used by most V I person.

Hi Ian
I don't know if you read this newspaper but last week in the daily
mirror there was an article about an American woman who wanted to go
blind which infuriated me about as much as what you have written
has. There was also an advert about fifteen years ago done by
action for blind people that made us look totally helpless which
annoyed me as well. I don't buy the rnib's products as I think they
are poor quality most of the time. and when my year's subscription
is up I don't think I will renew it either.
Janet ps there are still letters at the bottom of your messages.

I am seriously considering boycotting what few RNIB products and
services I use - chiefly the electronic newspaper service - in
response to their latest ad campaign. There has been an item on
this at the end of today’s edition of WATO. Celebs including
Barbara Windsor and Shirley Bassey are presented talking about the
idea of being told they’re going blind.
Bassey describes that possibility as being “Devastating” and says
she might as well be told that she’s going to die. Once again they
have turned my impairment into a thing of terror and me into an
object of pity and I’ve had enough of
