Thyme Flies!

Howdy Comrades! As the previous post demonstrates, time is a route dependent quantity.  I posted the same article both before and after the NFB convention in Dallas last month.  Only God or Einstein knows how this happened!  Since Convention, much of my time has been devoted to reading with my KNFB Reader, a quite expensive but revolutionary device for blind people.  I felt it was important that I purchase the KNFB Reader for two reasons.  First, I want to encourage further development of this important technology.  It doesn’t do everything I want it to do right now, but future iterations of the product probably will.  I hope that selling 33 reading machines (the number purchased at Convention) will encourage NFB and Kursweil to continued developing portable text to speech readers.  The second reason I purchased it is quite simple: My RP is worsening and making it increasingly problematic for me to use a CCTV, even supposedly the best one on the market.  No, the KNFB Reader can’t do everything I used to do with my Closed Circuit TV system, but I use it to complement the electronic magnifier.  It does take practice to get the best results from the KNFB Reader, but it is a very valuable tool in my high tech tool belt for dealing with blindness.  This technology will certainly feature prominently in my imaginary world ruled by the blind.  I have said enough for today, and time is getting away from me.  Here we go again!    Actually, I must check Blind confidential to see if BC needs more political correction.
