Thanks for the information, a very interesting read. The whole idea came from Scott who is fully blind, he had his sight until his early 20's and he explains his feelings of going blind as though he could see one minute and not the next, which is his idea behind putting on a blindfold.

I encourage him to read the whole article.

Just the idea of this sounds dangerous. Blindfolding someone will not accurately represent what it is like to be blind. Maybe newly blind but there was no wan in hell I tried to run anywhere right after I lost my sight. Heck I wouldn't do it now except on a treadmill.
