I hate computer Braille. It's almost another language but here's something
cool you might try if you use a Braille screen. If you play with random
characters like punctuation especially, you figure out how to manually
translate grade two Braille. So my name for instants in grade two Braille
would come out as ,kev94 The comma represents the capital and the 9 is an
I.N. contraction and the 4 is a period. Obviously if you understand regular
computer Braille, you'll know what this all means.

Hi Guys,
I suppose that people with a dexterity problem could use the electric
Perkins. It was also used by people that Brailled textbooks, etc. That was
before the computer Braille like they have now.
I also think they made each character the same height.
