[nfb-talk] conventions and behavior

[Michael D. Barber]

While it may be true that there are people who possess less than adequate 
travel skills, I think we need to remember that not everyone has had the 
opportunities some of us have had for good O and M training.  Instead of 
making fun of them, perhaps we should try and mentor them and give them 
helpful tips.  Also remember there are people who try and travel and have 
enough hearing difficulties that being in a crowd can add much confusion to 
them.  Let's try and be a little merciful to such, okay?

thanks.

Michael
