*****  Yes and no. You would certainly agree that a blindfolded person
cannot get sufficient information for driving safely. Certainly at such
extremes you do encounter a *yes or no* situation. That was not my point. In
fact the main point was based on an opposite view.  I included the full
continuum of visual and other sensory input to the situation.

******  In your quote you started with Dr. T quotes but included many of my
replies to him as if they were part of what he was saying. The result is
that you seem to disagree with what I was saying, except I was saying what
you are trying to say. The context of both the quotes and your discussion
about them got all mixed up in the process.
