Like Arun Ice Cream. Oh Oh retail is big business and retail marketers would love your post. I agree with you in toto about attending to the women of the species. I wait outside or dont go shopping when they do. I hope there is an SPCSP, Society for prevention of cruelty to sales people. Phone saythal pothum veedu thedi varum. Like Arun Ice Cream.

But for the greatest part you''ll be thinking in pics and not in words !! How a blind man is thinking or dreaming??? We don''t know, but I think that it is related on his other senses, as the taste, the noises, the smells etcetera, which are more developt as from the seeing people....don''t you think?? Dutch people who has emigrated to for instance Canada ( after the 2nd worldwar) can''t speak Dutch anymore very good and they are thinking in Englisch now, so that is not their mother tongue.

Eng + Bong, Eng+Hindi ... but I''ve gone one better than most ... I dream in English ... I don''t know why that should be ... I am not anglicised, at home we speak mostly Bong. But yes, I communicate mostly in English, largely because in the work place that is the lingo. As regards what the blind think like, let me narrate what I was asked in my first job interview, oh many years ago ... apart from knowledge of your subject, even in those days, communication skills were also tested. I was asked to describe the colour ''red'' to a person who was blind from birth. Go ahead, take a shot, how would you do it?
