That being said, is it true that Vinnie is blind and using a voice
translation program?

I am not the person to make that kind of thing up... If you look at
RBP.WW, you'll notice a bunch of his posts in which he explains some of
that.

I don't read rbp.ww, but I believe you. I wonder how different an experience
it is boating as a blind boater. My mom is also blind, and there's no limit
to what a different world she lives in. Is there a way to program spelling
into those voice translating programs? If so, he might still find a search
engine useful.


Yeah, although I don't see too well without lenses (-9 diopter), I would
probably be scared running anything blind, trusting only the guide. Then
again, in nowadays world, it can be a good thing to be able to have
someone that you can trust blindly (no pun intended).


Ar ar ar.
