Thanks for sharing. Blind people are much more attuned to what they can hear than sighted people.

Ingo Swann talked about 'Blind Sight' in one of the Las Vegas speeches I went to.

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.
