PL> and not being "blind" nodes.

You tripped my trigger there totally by accident, Phil.  I can see it was
an ¨accident too.

I spent many years as the largest west coast site for disbility support and
may ¨well have been the largest USA one as we never checked the east coast
on that. ¨I used to run 700$ a month phone bills to make this happen. I've
voiced over so ¨many sysops who were blind, i have literally lost the count
of them.  Call it ¨'hundreds'.

Most were not able to afford a call to me except to drop pff a number I
could ¨call them back at.  While i am far from perfect, I did all I could
and made a ¨difference I think.  The knowledge I have, has always been free
for all and ¨passed on the best I could manage.

Something in my soul objects to the wording 'blind nodes' but you are not
¨guilty of saying something wrong there as you mean I think other than my
own ¨little head associated.

To this day I call myself a 'TAB'.  That means 'temporarily abled body'. 
The ¨meaning to that is deep but the short version is 'there but for the
grace of ¨god, go I'.

Any one of us can have adversity strike at any moment.  Peace be on you
that ¨all is well.
