Hi yes some times I click my tong, but it's not a magic thing or a super power! The way it works is it helps you to sense how big a room is or how close you are too a wall. The sound bounces back off hard surfaces. If you stand in your bath room and click your tong and then walk out and go in to your kitchen, then do it again you will here the sound is verry different. I am all so pretty good at playing Killer Instinct. I started playing on the snes and now I play on xbox. I haven't played for a few months now. I am not as good as this dude: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2016-03-29-meet-the-blind-gamer-with-a-killer-instinct https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2016-03-29-meet-the-blind...

Thanks for sharing. Blind people are much more attuned to what they can hear than sighted people. People have the ability to transpose their senses - blind people still have the portion of the brain that processes vision, so it gets used in other ways. The term is 'synesthesia'. Ingo Swann talked about 'Blind Sight' in one of the Las Vegas speeches I went to. This link is to my recent comment about meeting Ingo Swann: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17238552 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17238552 If you put drop an email address somewhere (a comment, or in your hacker news profile), I'd send you an email - I am concerned about the accessibility of my website for the visually impaired.
