The Hands That Feed

Why do organizations that claim to advocate for people with vision impairment choose to take action against companies that do a good job with accessibility while giving a free pass to many that do nothing for our community?

Response to Sid and Nancy

I have joined The 21st Floor skeptical news site as a columnist. I am proud to be included in this very cool new project with a bunch of really terrific people. This is also the first time I've had the opportunity to participate in a site not specific to disability which will be fun.

My focus at 21st Floor will be covering alternative medicine frauds perpetrated on people with disabilities and those with diseases that are likely fatal. We also hope to create something of an online community where victims of alt-med scams can find and support each other.

Coming Back To Blogging

Well, old Gonz Blinko is writing a new blog post for the first time in a long time. This one is really just to try out the multi-user blog features of Drupal 7.x so I'm not going to say anything too interesting here.

Some Gonz Blinko fans have found my @gonz_blinko Twitter feed. On Twitter, though, Gonz is less gonzo than in my articles. I'm expecting the weirdness to come back with a little practice.

And, we are definitely doomed!

Coming Soon...

The new hofstader.com web site is dedicated to dispelling myths about disability, shining light on pseudo scientific bogus remedies for incurable diseases that lead to disabilities, coverage of real scientific findings in regarding disabilities, access technology (especially free software tools for people with disability), promoting accessibility and human and civil rights for people with disabilities. We will be working on the site and expect it will be online in a skeleton form pretty soon.
