As the subject line indicates Scott, a very interesting perspective on what might well take place behind closed doors. Indeed, this is something I have heard before from another source. Although it is difficult to believe, I would rule nothing out when it comes to money and what it can buy.
As far as I am aware, please correct me if wrong, but isn't the NFB the National Federation of the Blind. One would think that they would be on our side in such a matter. However, if what you are saying is true, then they have been guilty of giving us blindies a right good shafting up the holistic synthesiser so to speak. I wonder is there any organisation in the world that corruption isn't the norm anymore. I suppose not if one looks at politics the world over, and the way Politicians are bought by the big multi nationals to pass laws favourable to their own interests. We live in a world that is awash with information, and the technology to gain instant access to that information. The problem is, how much is true and how much is a steaming pile of brown stuff that evokes the gag response. I have sometimes thought that organizations for the disabled, in this case the blind, are little more than a resource to be farmed in as profitable a way as possible by sighted entrepreneurs. OK Microsoft and others, you are off the hook for the time being, but don't forget I am keeping my good half eye on all your dealings with this very profitable resource of humans. Finally, I do not want the folks on this list to think I am in anyway paranoid. Please believe me when I say that there are a bunch of well-dressed individuals who lurk around at the bottom of my garden just waiting for the chance to have me. Thank goodness for Google's search engine. The ability to have a quick look up at what a shifty bunch of buggers are doing at the bottom of one's garden is very comforting.
