Terry, if you're concerned about how it looks to sighted people, then
I suggest you go back into your bedroom and go to bed for the rest of
your life. If you need to use a BN while you are standing up and
while you're "dressed up", then you will just do it, and to Hell with
the prissy, self-centered idiots who are "concerned that it doesn't
look right". It's your pencil and paper, b'God, and you have every
right in the world to use it when and where you will!! If you have a
tool that you need to use in order to accomplish a task, then you use
it. Terry, you're blind. Nothing is going to change that unless God
does. In the meantime, you live your life the best way you can.
People who refuse to use tools that will enhance their lives because
it looks bad to the sighted are playing into their game. They don't
want you to "look funny". It makes them uncomfortable! So what!
People need to be made uncomfortable every once in a while. It's good
for their psyches.
Sorry for the rant, but this "I'm worried about how it looks to the
sighted", gumbus makes me seethe!
