Not a reply to azelfrath, sorry. chadmalik, if by chance you see this, your posts have been getting auto-killed since the "Why vertical farms are a crock" discussion.

For those without showdead on, here's the comment, which I thought was worth reprinting:

"I'd like to add another way of thinking of it. Several years ago I was part of a group working on a project that was composed of people from various companies. One of the attendees was blind. It became clear VERY quickly that our blind friend was light years above everyone else technically and in terms of thinking about process. He'd sit there, listen to people go back and forth on this or that issue, then come in with an incredibly intelligent and appropriate solution, time after time. He was using an audio browser to go over the project materials when we weren't working. If you don't make your services accessible to the blind, YOU might be the one missing the benefit of this type of person's input."
