I swear to God that I saw the following sign at the pharmacist's counter in Ringer's drugstore in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada: BLIND? ASK ABOUT OUR PRESCRIPTIONS IN BRAILLE. And, no, there wasn't a Braille version, and the print was far too small to be read even by a person who was merely "legally blind." Perhaps the sign was meant for people who expect to go blind in the near future (from reading too much netnews) and like to plan ahead. --- James Mihaychuk, grad student | Take my advice, Dept. of Physics, U. of Toronto | Don't listen to me... jamesm@physics.utoronto.ca | --Neil Young, "Hippie Dream"
