Nicky, I know where you are coming from, It is a bit like the corruption of
the english language in Text messaging: "r u with me, and words like 2 nite".
I heard the interview with Stewart and Joe and the other point I'd like to
make is that with siri have we reached the end of the road for table quizzes, I
mean, anyone with an Iphone 4 would have the upper hand thus making individual
human intelligence obsolete. Then I suppose you could have a Siri table quiz
mmm.... Gerry to see who gets the answer first.

I am listening to all of the discussion on Cerie with great interest. I
haven't used it and yes, maybe if I did I would grow to depend on it a little
too much. Lads, really, is this just a very lazy way out? Ok, quickly
speaking something into your phone to have it put in your calendar or something
might be alright but having it dictate tweets and text messages and stuff like
that? How many of us actually read Braille now on a day-to-day basis these
days? We are depending on technological developments to a great extent. What
about our literacy skills? Is this programme not just a lazy way out for blind
people?
