Yes Derek, I agree. It's ok doing stuff online, but I still find
Braille is my fastest method of accessing something quickly like a bill
or account number if I need to recite it over the phone. Everyone has
their preference, so I don't wish to start a debate about that, but it
was simply good that the utility company I mentioned in an earlier
message, offered me an alternative format, and even the grade of Braille
of my choosing.

Hi Jackie
I agree with you about Braille bills.
Although one could use scanner to read the print copy, problem is the
print copy can sometimes be 3 or so pages.
The time it takes to scan 3 pages to find out the main details, is far
slower than it takes to read Braille copy of same.
Regards, Derek
