I'm not one who reads Braille on a regular basis but have no problem labeling things with Braille and knowing which floor I'm selecting and exiting on in an elevator. I'm not going to get into the politics or ideals of any blind consumer group but do see humor in one group talking about the decline in Braille when they have helped create a device that can read signs, menus, documents, etc without Braille.
