[nfb-talk] Correction!

[Wm. Ritchhart]

A couple of weeks ago we were discussing the U.S.S. John F. Kennedy and
their refusal to allow a blind person to tour the ship.  I corrected a
list member for calling the J.F.K. a battleship.  I said the J.F.K. was
a nuclear powered air craft carrier, (CVN).  

 

This morning while reading the Washington Times, I read an article on
the decommissioning of the J.F.K.  The article stated the J.F.K. was a
traditional steam powered ship.  Not a nuclear powered ship.  So it is a
(CV), not a (CVN).  

 

Some may ask "who cares?)  I do, because I corrected somebody and made a
mistake and I like to correct my mistakes when I make them.  

 

Thanks, 

 

 
William
