Harvey, yes I realize your right, that is why people should try to get 
employment in normal jobs and I know that is very hard to do but if people 
will try and gain the job it will pay off.  I worked for almost 40 years for 
the air force and if I had not been able to equal the others doing the same 
job I would have been let go.  I went and convinced the base to hire two 
blind people I knew which they did, when they were hired on a trial bases 
they would not put forth the effort and were let go so my thinking is you 
must try harder than the so called normal folks.
