Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Daniel Kish, a man with blindness, uses echolocation to navigate the world and teaches others how to do it. He had done a bit of tv stuff and I think a TED-like talk or two about blindness and perception.
I don't have any direct quotes, but you may find your answer from him.
I remember the late Ben Underwood whom had the same talent. One bit stuck with me comes to mind when Ben was walking the neighborhood with a tv reporter... "What's to my right", reporter asks. "{Click click} It's the side of a house, uh with stuff in front of it.", and Ben replies with more detail, "{click click} ...cans, yup garbage cans."
