Thanks for Reid-ing My Mind
I received a lovely email this morning from Thomas of the blog Reid My Mind saying he’s written a post about MFTB there, as well as on the blog for the Monroe County Council of the Blind in Pennsylvania.
In the Reid My Mind post, he talks about a good friend who did “live description” for him over the phone as they watched the last season of the HBO series “The Wire”, and how terrific it was. For people who aren’t vision-impaired, it was hard enough keeping track of everyone on that show – can you imagine not being able to see them? It makes you wonder why description couldn’t be available through the TV or on the popular DVDs for that show, so Thomas didn’t have to rely on a friend to tell him what was going on. Check the sidebar links to go to other sites with more information on description and places where you can get it on TV.
Thanks very much to Thomas, and hello to the great people he’s sent this way!
