I did not read her post as making fun of illiterate or brain-damaged people but again pointing out the oxymoron (the point of the thread!).



From my standpoint, that's where I come in. Or the person HIRED to help that blind person or disabled person. WE, who are "able bodied" ASSIST them. They may not can read or drive, but we can to assist them.

How many of us have stood at the drive-thru ATM? I have. Why can't a blind person who was driven to that ATM by someone else use the braille on that particular ATM (drive-up)?

I see what you are saying, but for me, it's more than that!
