\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 Thank you for downloading the November Ouch podcast. Surely the best thing about this cold and wintry month. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 And coming up on the show today US commentator Lawrence Carter-Long on disability and Hurricane Sandy. Plus comedian Steve Day and editor of Disability Now, Ian McCrae, provide their own unique spin on some of this month's biggest headlines including that rather shocking blind tasering story. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 Newsflash! Tablets help disabled people. No they do but listeners I'm referring to the touch screen computer variety rather than medication. We'll be finding out how devices like the iPad are making it easier for people with certain disabilities to learn, work and be creative. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 Oh and Zach Anner is our guest near the end of the show. Two years ago the then 25 year old Texan with cerebral palsy won a competition to host a travel programme on Oprah's new TV network, and now has his own road trip show on YouTube. He'll be filling us in on how he came to be on first name terms with Ms Winfrey in about 30 minutes time. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 So it's a hearty, winter warmer full of tasers, travel and technology. Hold on to your tartan blankets. \par

\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 So speaking of tartan travel blankets... \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 You know what they used to be a really bad idea and a clich\'e9 but now they're looking quite good and I have just ordered one. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 Oh yeah. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 Honestly I have. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 It's to cover your entire body in the winter from top to toe tartan snuggy. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 Well that one is a home version it's like a fleecy tartan...I really have in fact and they've shipped it from America so this is quite some tartan blanket right? \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 People are going to start trying to have picnics on top of you. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 This is true. That could be quite good. I like that idea.\cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 That'll keep you warm. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 Anything to keep... Winter for me is about putting like six coats on where I triple my body size, I go from having wrists that are like an inch to having sort of Michelin man arms.\cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 It's not really Michelin man it's just the only time of the year where you look like you're of an average weight and build that's all.\cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 Yeah it's true. Okay it's true.\cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 I look like a Michelin man when I've been feeding up on winter pies and such like. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 This is true. Oh yes apparently other tyres are available, I can't just say Michelin man. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 Oh really? \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 Even though I've said it again. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 Name one other tyre? You can't can you? \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 Is Firestone a tyre? \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 Yeah alright then fine. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 Sorry I keep going on about tyres. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 Again other tyres are available... \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 It's not great listening I'll be honest. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 ...though we can't think of any. The thing is with winter is that I don't really feel the cold that much but it means that if you're visually impaired it tends to be darker a lot longer. I don't think I'm really revealing anything too massive there. Here's an exclusive! \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 主播大秀 home page I think for that tomorrow. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 This is comedy gold isn't it? But I did have an experience because what I always do when I cross the road and I'm on my own is that I'll just find somebody else also crossing the road and then just shadow them across. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 Stalk them is what you're saying. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 Stalk them across. Yeah it's a nice stalking, it's a friendly stalking.\cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 Right. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 They're helping me even though they don't really know it. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 They are your helper monkeys. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 I'd prefer not to refer to other members of the human race as monkeys or dogs they're civilised, noble, noble human beings who don't really know what they're doing but they are assisting me. It's like subterfuge it's assistance by stealth and it's free which I really enjoy. And what happened a few years ago was that it was very, very dark one winter's evening and I was crossing a very busy road in Brixton and I thought I'll do my usual trick shadow another guy and a bus, I'm not joking really did come within about three seconds of killing the both of us, we had to literally fly kind of action hero style on to the kerb both of us together. And I turned round and I said, "I was following you because I'm visually impaired" and he went, "Yeah well I'm blind, I was following you." So it was literally the blind leading the blind. So what I do now is I tend to look for level crossings. Yeah I learned by lesson the hard way I felt. But I imagine that you must look a bit like a crab when you're waddling sideways through elevator doors when you've got six layers on and it must take you hours to get ready.  \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 It takes me...\cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 Because I've seen you even trying and get a bag round your hand and that takes about a day. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 I know. Well winter it's half an hour to get the coat on and then let's not even talk about gloves. I mean it takes days! The right one's alright, the left...\cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 What about mittens? I know it's not very dignified. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 But then you look like you're about three. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 Anyway look, listen deaf comedian Steve Day and Ian McCrae the visually impaired editor of \i Disability Now\i0  are here with us. We love to put your disability before your names, you'll have noticed that. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 Just in case anybody isn't sure. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps steve\cell\caps0 Remind me who I am. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 Steve we did hear that you did a comedy course in a care home recently. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps Steve\cell\caps0 I did and it was absolutely brilliant. And I had the same level of cynicism that you're showing on your face at the moment but it was brilliant. Because there were people there in various stages of dementia but through comedy and specifically getting them to sing songs and stuff they came alive for that moment. We did an actual show and we worried that it wouldn't work and it would be awful. But the families of people in the care home who came to the show some were in tears, "That's my dad, that's my dad he came alive" after the show was finished it was back down to the way they were in a kind of cocoon of dementia. But it was one of the best...it was one of the things I least looked forward last year but turned out to be one of the best things I've ever done. The problem was though we do kind of rehearsals and then you come back the next week and people of that age and somebody would have died, you know one of your main stars from the show.\cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 So you had to cast accordingly? \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps steve\cell\caps0 Yes.\cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 Ian, editor of \i Disability Now\i0  hello. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps ian\cell\caps0 A new website. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 Well I was going to say you've always been a paper version haven't you, paper newspaper, and now you've moved to an online publication, why did you make the change? \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps ian\cell\caps0 We followed examples set by lots of other print... I'd realised last week, I just noticed last week, that even the \i Big Issue\i0  is going online now. So quite how that works being sold outside of underground stations and elsewhere I'm not sure. But basically it just got very expensive to run a print magazine. We weren't reaching enough people with the print magazine and we could obviously reach a lot more people via the web. And certainly following the first month's operation things are looking really good. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 Who does read \i Disability Now\i0  do you think? \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps ian\cell\caps0 From the comments that we get and feedback we get it is very much disabled people and that's precisely what we want. I think back in the old days \i Disability Now\i0  was hardly read at all by disabled people, it was read a lot by kind of carers and family members and so forth because a lot of the content was about caring and having a disabled kid in your family. Now the content is absolutely on the money just like Ouch about disability and disabled people. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 Is it a bit of a guilty pleasure do you think? Because I have friends who certainly used to get the print version and you kind of go round to their house and you'd flick...you wouldn't buy it yourself but you'd look through, you know a bit naughty. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 A guilty pleasure \endash  it's not porn. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 I'm just saying just to see the latest \i Disability News\i0 .\cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3

\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 Well we've thoroughly plugged the new online edition of \i Disability Now\i0 , we've covered that so let's move on to the news. First things first, we've got Colin Farmer, a 62 year old blind man from Lancashire who was mistakenly tasered by the local police force while walking down a street. Now I know Ian you've been following this story rather closely, can you take us through it? \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps ian\cell\caps0 Yeah. I've not had a chance to speak to Mr Farmer but I've followed it closely through the news media. Basically he was on his way to the pub one darkening evening, on his way to the pub to meet some friends. He's previously had two strokes this guy, right two strokes and he's as you say, Rob, he's 62. He was walking along with his white cane and he described how he heard people behind him shouting at him. And he thought it was some local thugs, it was the word he used was thugs, but thugs or hooligans or whatever who meant him kind of harm and so he just started to say, "Look I'm blind, I'm blind." And then the next thing he knew he felt this tremendous shock as whatever 50,000 volts from a taser went through him. He obviously fell down as a result of the tasering. When he was on the floor a policeman jumped on him with his knees in his back and he still thought it was thugs and he was still absolutely terrified to death as well as having been stunned from the taser. It emerged that somebody had called the local police station in Chorley in Greater Manchester and had said there's a man going round the estate with a Samurai sword. So the bunch of bobbies on patrol clocked this guy, Mr Colin Farmer, and thought that what he had was a Samurai sword not a white cane. I have to say that it means us other blindies have been very careful about going out especially after the clocks went back and as you were saying earlier it got dark about showing our canes in the dark.  \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 But surely the policeman in question must have been visually impaired himself because you can't get a white stick and a Samurai sword confused, or can you? \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3

\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps steve\cell\caps0 Well the worst one I did a gig in Leicester and there were fifteen hundred people there, but biggest gig I'd ever done De Montfort Hall, and then I had to walk into the town of Leicester to do another show. And on the way back to the De Montfort Hall for the show biz after party I was stopped by the police and accused of smashing a window. I had nothing of the sort. The description was someone wearing a black leather jacket which was 95% of the male population at that time. And they would not believe my story that I hadn't smashed any windows. So much so that they were so insistent that I started to believe I might have done. I can see how the Birmingham Six confessed after seven days, after half an hour of being grilled by a policeman I was ready to confess to everything. And they said, "Where have you been then?" And I said, "I've been to De Montfort Hall I've been doing the Leicester Comedy Festival Gala Show" and they said, "Well who else was there?" I thought well there were fifteen hundred people I didn't get their names. They said, "Well you must know someone" so I said...and at this time I was working with Sarah Millican she wasn't a big named star then, they said, "Sarah who?" I said, "Sarah Millican." I heard the man, the policeman radioing "It's Millican" I don't know the phonetic alphabet it was like, foxtrot, alpha. So I've already dobbed in half of the comedy community into the police's...probably on a database somewhere 'Sarah Millican smashing window'. Anyway and then they strip searched me, it was freezing, it was the first week of January and they strip searched me. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3

The deaf comedian window smashing genius that they thought it was and they just left me. The other police shot off in their patrol car to arrest somebody else, Sarah Millican probably, and I was left there. And another policeman came and asked me to fill in a form. I had to fill in a special disabled person having been arrested form to ask my ethnic background. And they said, "Are you African, are you..." all this malarkey and I said, "Can I fill this in after I've got dressed please?" \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3

\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps ian\cell\caps0 The first one which is very short was I was once pulled up in Saltwell Park, Gateshead which is where I'm from, Gateshead that is, and I was accused of having exposed myself. I eventually managed to persuade them it wasn't me but we won't go into how I managed to do that. The other time was you wouldn't know to look at me now but I was a football hooligan. I was sent to school in a place that was about...it was a castle it was about eight miles outside of Shrewsbury going towards Welshpool, and it was an idea they had for kind of integrating disabled people into our own local community so they sent me 270 miles from home. And I used to go as often as I could to see Shrewsbury Town playing at the wonderfully named Gay Meadow, yeah it's fantastic, where the ball used to go over the stand and into the River Severn. And there's this mythical story that there was a guy in a corrical waiting the ball to come over. Anyway I went one week and it was a cup tie, I can't remember if it was the second or the third round, but it was Shrewsbury Town versus Hartlepool United. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps steve\cell\caps0 Probably the second round, Ian, if it was Shrewsbury Town. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3

\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps ian\cell\caps0 So I'm standing right at the front at the tech end at the Gay Meadow and this toilet roll landed in front of the wall in front of the pitch side wall in front of me and it hadn't unrolled. And I thought blimey this is too good a chance to miss. There were two things that I didn't know that I should have realised or been made aware of: one was that Hartlepool had just been awarded a penalty. I threw this toilet roll and it arced beautifully over the goal just as Hartlepool's penalty taker was running up to hit the ball, so it completely screwed up the penalty. The second thing that I didn't know that was exactly three feet to my right was a burly member of the Shropshire Constabulary who grabbed my anorak, we wore anoraks in those days do you remember, he grabbed my anorak cuff and twisted it and said, "Right you're coming with me." And he led me out and I went past all the Hartlepool fans they were all going, "Get in there bobby" and all that. And we had to go out through the players' tunnel and once we got out of the relative daylight into the darkness where the players' tunnel was I started to trip and shuffle and clear my throat a bit. And he said, "What's the matter with you are you blind or something?" And I said, "Well actually yes" and of course there's like three blind schools in the vicinity so he wasn't surprised. He said, "Well why the bloody hell didn't you tell me?" And he said, "I'm still going to have to take you out but I'll tell your mates where you are." So with a bit of luck there's still the odd copper like that around. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 It's a beautiful story that takes me back to an earlier era of when people did used to throw toilet roll on football pitches, plus an anorak.

\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps lawrence\cell\caps0 Well you're lucky because you've got your electricity. Millions in New York City don't. They were out of power for about five days. In parts of lower Manhattan the lights have just come back on. Transportation I'm told is a little bit better but it's still quite a mess. We've still got a lot of people who are stranded in cold, dark high-rises, people that are stuck in nursing homes, adult care facilities and worried right now about getting food, medicine and water. In the areas that the electricity isn't back on people are still concerned about getting their ventilators or their wheelchairs recharged. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 And one disabled couples' situation has got a lot of social media attention, Lawrence, can you tell us about that? \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps lawrence\cell\caps0 Sure. That would be the story I think of Nick Dupuis and Alejandra Ospina and Nick and Alejandra I think really their case highlights stories that aren't as well known or aren't as well told. I think because Nick and Alejandra are really tapped into the disability community. Nick for his community organising in Alabama and for his web comics. And Alejandra for her organising there in New York City and her work with the geek girl internet community. They've got resources and they're able to tap into I think a vat of support and help that other people might not have. So they've really shown I think in their case how the community was disability led can pull together and has pulled together in the course of this story and in this emergency to really show how it can be done. We've had folks from across the United States be able to connect and offer support to them from New York to Boston to Colorado to California mobilising people on the ground that still had electricity, that had mobile access that were able to get teams together to actually get to Alejandra and Nick's apartment where they had no electricity, find ways to recharge the generators, to get generators so that Nick could use his ventilator. So that's been a real story I think of resilience that is sort of born out of disability that you don't often hear. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 They live 12 stories up in a high-rise, the lifts were out and Nick, as you just mentioned there, uses a ventilator. I mean what would the consequences be if you can't get the batteries, the electricity for a ventilator that you have to use on a daily basis where does that go for people, what happens? \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps lawrence\cell\caps0 Well that's exactly...it goes exactly you know the default is death. I mean that's your option. When you ask what are my resources in an emergency the default answer tends to be call 911 or I guess it would be 999 there emergency services. But you have a problem there because what they want to do is they say, "Okay well let's transfer you to a hospital". Well they had a situation where the hospital nearest to Nick and Alejandra had their generator fail and all the premature babies had to be taken off the failed ventilators and bagged and removed from the hospital. They were taken out into the street in the middle of this hurricane, in the middle of this storm. So obviously moving someone who's ventilator dependent, who's on the 12\super th\nosupersub  floor is not necessarily the best thing. So you've got to develop these strategies on how communities can support each other. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 Do you think Sandy has shown us that lessons have been learnt from Hurricane Katrina and Irene regarding disability access during these really quite scary times? \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps lawrence\cell\caps0 I think from what we're hearing on the ground is that things have been better than they were during previous hurricanes and that relief organisations like the Federal Emergency Management Agency certainly grass roots organisations like Portlight Industries who have been providing support and providing funds and helping coordinate the efforts are more prepared and more on the ground and more connected than we were during Katrina so we're glad to see that.

\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 So Ian when I hear about touch screen technology and things like that because I'm a complete luddite I tend to just fall asleep. I find it really difficult to feel how this can be relevant to me although I'm sure it is. So what about Mr Tumble then, tell me about him and why he has a tablet? \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps ian\cell\caps0 Mr Tumble is on a Cbeebies programme called 'Something Special' which is aimed at all kids but in particular for children with learning disabilities. And the Tumble Tap is a tablet which is a new addition for the new series. So I assume you're probably not familiar with 'Something Special'? \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 I would love to know more about it, yeah.\cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps ian\cell\caps0 Cool. Okay. Well at the start of the programme he has his spotty bag and within the spotty bag he takes out a picture frame which contains an image of an object that they're going to talk about during that show. And for this series they replaced the picture frames with the tumble tap tablet. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 I see right. So hang on is this going to be something that kids in real life can actually have on their own iPads as well?\cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps ian\cell\caps0 After a fashion yeah. So within the TV programme it's just literally that simple cause and effect if they hit it it shows the object. And online that's now been expanded into a full game. So towards the end of this month there's going to be the game called Tumble Tap Snap I think coming out. And that will allow children with a range of different disabilities to be able to play along. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 And what's interesting about this is that this show is not purely just aimed for children with special needs, this is for all kinds of children as well it's got mass appeal across disability and non disability audiences, right? \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps ian\cell\caps0 Yeah absolutely it's universally loved. That's one of the strongest things about this show is that although it is designed specifically with these kind of developmental needs and abilities in mind it's also aimed to be as appealing as possible to all kids. So it's the same principle behind the games as well. So although they can be highly configured for even the most profoundly disabled young kids they're also just as fun and enjoyable for everybody. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3

\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps ian\cell\caps0 This particular new one it's called Tumble Tap Snap and it is a snap game, so you're matching objects.

What is it about touch screens then, why are they working for children and for young children with learning difficulties? What's the appeal here? \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps ian\cell\caps0 These particular children who are, for example, on the autistic spectrum what they offer over traditional computers is the direct cause and effect. That's something that they found really strongly with filming the programme was just that simple thing of having a button with that immediate bigger reward was much more likely to encourage the kids to actually take that step of experimenting and interacting, which can be quite difficult for autistic kids in particular. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 But that's the cause and effect is having a very noticeable reward at every stage.\cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps ian\cell\caps0 Yeah absolutely. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 So if I'm looking at a tablet computer and I see something that interests me it's a flower or a character, it's Mr Tumble or whatever and I like his shoe I can click on it or push it or point on it and something might happen. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps ian\cell\caps0 Yeah it's that immediate reaction. And it's also a lot simpler in terms of motor ability than using something like a mouse. So, for example, if you've got a mouse you look on the screen you have to calculate the distance between two points, translate that up and down movement into a back and forwards movement \endash  all kinds of complicated stuff going on. So if you've got something that you can just put your finger directly on and manipulate on the spot then that's a lot simpler and straight forward. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 And you are mostly creating learning materials for disabled children. Do they take to it more quickly than disabled adults? \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps ian\cell\caps0 Yeah I'd say it's not even specifically about children with disabilities it's just children in general, I mean it's so common. You can look in YouTube and see so many videos of one year olds who are using these devices so easily. And even taking it further so seeing kids who are actually now trying to swipe magazines and TVs and stuff just because it's just a natural, tactile interaction. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 Wow that's incredible! So they're actually holding a magazine but swiping it like an iPad to turn the page? \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps ian\cell\pard\intbl\caps0 Yeah, yeah so they're managing to turn the page but then they're getting frustrated when they see a picture in there and they're kind of rubbing their finger over the picture and nothing's happening. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 This is where we need to start bringing back 'scratch 'n' sniff' that would be the best...that makes me sound so old. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 I was happy with an Etch A Sketch do you know what I mean? It's not just people with learning difficulties who are getting a lot from all this technology though. Lee Ridley aka Lost Voice Guy is a Newcastle based comedian who has never been able to speak. He does his entire comedy act using a tablet computer. Well here's what he sounds like on stage. \par
[Playing clip: You may be wondering why I chose to sound like a posh version of Robocop, let me demonstrate. I don't really want to sound like this. [Female voice] And I really, really didn't want to sound like this. ((German))]\par
So that's the man in action, Lee Ridley. Excellent. Well our reporter, Emma Tracey, met him before a London gig at the weekend and asked how he took to the technology that has led him into a career as a comic. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps Lee\cell\caps0 I never used to like them for some reason I thought they were a bit odd but I've got used to them now, mainly because I've got used to using tablet devices.

\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps emma\cell\caps0 And you used your iPad for your comedy act, talk me through how that works? \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps lee\cell\caps0 Yes. I just use an application called 'Speak It'. Basically I type in what I want to say and store it. Then I press each joke when I want it to say it. The voice is much clearer than other devices I've used. I use my Lightwriter day to day because it's a lot more recordable. And I also think it's less likely to get to get nicked. I think I've just got used to my Lightwriter voice as being my own. That's maybe that's why I'm reluctant to stop using it. I see it as part of me now.\cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3

So staying with the arts, Dean Rodney from The Fish Police who has a learning disability and is on the autistic spectrum has taken to the tablet computer like a kind of disabled duck to water shall we say. He and other musicians have been using tablet computers to create the Dean Rodney Singers, which sounds like something my granddad would probably have on 78s.

\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps ian\cell\caps0 It sounds incredibly counter intuitive and I have to say that I was a reluctant, you know, they talk about early adopters, I was a reluctant adopter. And one of the reasons for that was that the first touch screen I used was on a phone and it just didn't work for me at all. It was on a phone that didn't have a screen reader built into it. I then moved over to a different device, just to avoid the product placement issue it begins with 'i' and ends with 'phone', so I've been using that. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3

\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps ian\cell\caps0 It's just because you get an immediate response, you get an immediate speech response when your finger moves around the screen and you know what you do in order to activate a particular part of the screen. And I have to say it is because the particular company which produced the product that I use has taken the time and the opportunity to completely integrate the access solution into every product across its product range. And that means that you're not using something which is fighting, I don't want to get too technical about it, but you're not using something which is fighting against the operating system, you're using something which is completely integrated with the operating system and knows what it's doing. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3

\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps ian H\cell\caps0 Yeah absolutely that's a really good point. These kind of devices are just a tool; for some people they're going to work really well, for some people they're not going to work at all. So they're portable and they're cheap. You can get the kind of set ups now for a few hundred quid which would cost you tens of thousands even only a few years ago. But there's certain types of motor impairments in particular for whom it can just be a complete barrier. So people who can't, for example, make accurate movements, do precise gestures like swiping or dragging and even actually accurately hitting a precise spot on the screen you can quite easily miss what you're aiming for. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3

\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps ian H\cell\caps0 It's a really good point and that's a genuine worry that special needs teachers have had about the increase usage of these devices for kids on the autistic spectrum in particular. Which is if you are putting them in front of this device all the time, they're quite likely to use it for lots of stimulation and stuff, and that can actually detract from practising the really important things of actually interacting with people.

\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps zach\cell\caps0 I mean I think I get cut a lot of slack just for having a disability and having a good time. And for me I've always wanted to be an entertainer and be good at that so I just want to earn whatever. If I inspire somebody I want to earn it with my deeds and not just my disabilities. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 Well as a veteran traveller I'd really like to get your opinion on a survey which was released in the UK last week. And it found that air travel for disabled people, rather unsurprisingly, is pretty difficult, there's lot of things about the lack of or the complete absence of disabled access toilets on board jumbo jets or any kind of planes. And I'm just wondering what your experience of flying has been? \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps zach\cell\caps0 It sucks most of the time. You're guaranteed to end up with something broken on your wheelchair. That's what I've learned.\cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 You mean from people throwing it about in the stow?\cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps zach\cell\caps0 Yeah. I don't know what they're doing with it but honestly that's like a guarantee. People try their best but it doesn't seem like there's any real system for working with people with disabilities to make things easier. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 Is it a bit of a crossed leg situation? A lot of people that contributed to the questionnaire said one of the big problems flying as a wheelchair user, disabled person, is the size of the toilets onboard. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 You just can't get in, they're tiny. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps zach\cell\caps0 That is my number one fear in life actually is having to use an airplane bathroom. Like that's above death and all the other horrors in the world it's definitely airplane bathrooms number one. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps liz\cell\caps0 Have you ever actually used one? \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps zach\cell\caps0 No and it's a process of just like weeks and weeks of preparation, mental and physical preparation so that I don't have to use an airplane bathroom. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 And a lot of disabled people complain, obviously you're told when you're in the air you should be drinking a lot of fluids. And a lot of people with disabilities are just saying well I'm constantly dehydrated when I'm flying because I'm scared to drink litres of water before I go and step onboard for obvious reasons because I can't use the toilet.\cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps zach\cell\caps0 Yeah. The only way that I've learnt how to deal with it is just like through preparing and knowing that I'm going to be uncomfortable. And there's got to be a better way but you guys are probably going to spearhead it before we do. Like when I travel on the road I brought my own toilet seat with me everywhere I went, like an awesome... Because you guys have...\cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 You make it sound almost like a pet. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps zach\cell\caps0 Well I'm very proud of this toilet seat and you guys actually inspired it with your toilet seats because bidets are not a big thing in the US and I am all about the bidet. I mean I'm not sure if this is something you guys normally talk about, but I have a toilet seat that I would marry if it were legal. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
\cellx1895\cellx8979\pard\intbl\sa600\caps rob\cell\caps0 And it probably is in some states. And I must also congratulate you on sounding uncannily like Kermit the frog as well, Zach. \cell\row\trowd\trgaph108\trleft-142\trpaddl108\trpaddr108\trpaddfl3\trpaddfr3
