Hey Bill. Just for an experience, please do the followingthings :

1. Switch off your computer.
2. Close your eyes and do something so that you can't see anything.
Are you really blind, now ? Ok, so:
3. Switch on your computer, choose any graphical mailer you like,
and try to reply to this mail _without_ opening your eyes.
Just use a speech system, or a braille one, if you have one you know
well enough.

Now... I'm waiting for your blindly sent reply.

Sébastien.
