- I can only think of one way around this braille problem: give
- spelling tests in Grade 2, require answers in Grade 1. As to your
- larger point, though,I think I can address it. People say I'm a
- good braille user--I don't know myself as I've never gotten
- reliable info on what a good braille reading rate might be.
- Regardless of how well I read, however, I can't spell worth crap.
- Ask my wife <grin>. Nothing made me look as good as a spelling
- checker <grin>.
