Hi Todd,
If you want PDI to change and have more senswitivity toward the
deaf/blind, publicly bashing them on the list isn't going to get it
done. Before you respond to my comments, think about this for a while.
Best Regards,
Les

Lisa,
First of all, you know that I have been with blind technology for over
25 years, so I am very well-aware of all what you stated below! What
you said is correct, and that is absolutely NOTHING new about blind
technology being inexcusably outrageous! Smile. But my pot is that,
from what I perceive PDI, these staff are almost completely INSENSITIVE
toward us deafblind, yes, so I stand by what I have told you. That does
not change my mind! That does not mean I am against them, no, just that
they show no sense at all! The good part is that the BN I have here
does not belong to me, so, of course, I did not pay for this. You
should be glad about it! Smile.
That is all I could say at this time.
Thank you.
Todd
