You don’t have to get up and turn the light on. I can sit here and be looking through an agenda and continue to make eye contact with you. I found that . . . The reason I started utilizing the braille note cards for my public speaking classes, is because I could still scan the room and make “eye contact” with the people in the class and still be getting information from my note cards. It’s got some advantages. Yeah. I’d love to be able to do that. [Laughter] Ok. Turning from reading to writing. When you write, and you’re in graduate school, so you have to write a lot, I’m assuming. Yes, yes. How do you compose? What tools do you use? How do you edit? I use the same tools that everybody else does. Microsoft Word, and use my ZoomText to proofread, to scan through and make sure. Sometimes I think I have an advantage with my screen reader. And I can read more quickly. People walk in and I’m reading speed and a half from what they’d normally be able to do. I can get through assignments more
