Victor - you are truly my real world inspiration!

Great talk from a blind man who experienced being shut out by technology, and then rescued by it. It'd be nice if it were captioned so that another audience wasn't shut out by the video presentation with no captions or transcript.

But thank you Victor, for sharing, and for your work.
