It's World Braille Day. Usually I'm not a big proponent of "insert name day" kinds of events because I think they are silly. Recently though I saw a post from someone in our blind community no less, saying braille was useless and that blind children didn't need to learn it. Braille is not useless, or obsolete, in as much as print is. Would sighted folks give up reading and writing in exchange for talking computers? Because thats what people who don't support braille propose. (1/2)
