Hi Colin!
Better late than never, although his consciousness has been growing for a
while. If it reaches the right people, it won't be misplaced.
I might just take his music more seriously in the future.

Dave

Subject: Re: Off Topic: Stevie Wonder At Grammies
what? the great Stevie Wonder has decided to gain a social conscience after
all these years? hmmm The messages of piece love and happiness in his music
aside, he's never been all that public regarding blind persons
advocacy...given his influence in the industry, he is well placed to be an
excellent advocate.
Bonno does more for persons with disabilities with his advocacy...so it's
just slightly ironic that Stevies comments at the grammys have made any
impact at all.
It is pretty funny though that they give a printed card to a blind guy to
read...and he still knows who got the award...isn't that card supposed to be
drawn out of a hat or something? Or maybe, it's all pre-conceived months
ahead of time lol.

Hello, all:
I know this might be considered to be off topic by some, but I just had to
share this. . It looks like Stevie Wonder's joke and statement about
accessibility at the Grammies has gone viral, at least in some circles.
Here it is in the link below, after the obligatory commercial:
