While it is fascinating to see touch-screen technology used in the iPhone and other devices [June 25], a part of the population is greeting it with much distress: people who are blind. Equipping appliances such as microwaves and washing machines--not to mention voting machines--with touch screens will cause a "one step forward, two steps back" situation.

You fell for his global-warming theory hook, line and sinker. Now you fawn over him with your article and his book excerpt. What about the noted scientists who say the global-warming theory is nothing but a load of methane-producing raw sewage? TIME, the rest of the media and all of Gore's Hollywood sycophants have got so far into this that it is inconceivable for them to think that the theory...
