When I was working at M S B there was a young man there that would walk
around slapping his feet as he walked. He did that for echo location,
because he was too busy talking to whomever he was walking with.

Thanks Marcia for the link. I downloaded it and listened to the first half.
It was indeed interesting. I know we know a lot of folks like Adam, and
some of us laughed and teased them too. Kids are really tough on each
other. We are so blessed to have had the training and experiences we had at
MSB and for me and tony, even before MSB. When I first came to Arizona,
back in 2003, my cousin Gary, asked if I still rode a bike. He said that I
rode around their street, went by parked cars, etc. I didn't remember doing
that, but I supposed maybe I did, if he said I did. He was so amazed and
he was still amazed at my mobility skills when we saw each other again in
2003. We stayed on a ranch and he parked his motor home next to us and I
played with the dogs, and walked around freely and that's, I guess, what
amazed him. So, seems you can never teach your relatives enough about the
abilities of blind people. Take care all.

There's also a program from This American Life,
covering the same subject. This is also associated with the same program
called Invisibelia.
I have the program, and will upload it to my Drop Box Public folder in a few
minutes. I hope I can provide the link to the list.

There is a program on NPR called Invisible that talks about a blind person
using echo location by making a clicking noise.
I don't know when it is on your local stations; but it is on WUOM-91.7
tonight at 8:00 EST January 26. It can be heard on their website as well,
michiganradio.org.
If you think education is difficult, try being stupid !
