Hi Aryan,

according to your theory, you should be able to teach a blind
man to use the standard qwerty keyboard without any brail,
true ?

PS: at the start even if its for just a few days you need to know
       where the letters are. And another thing when i visited to
       atomic energy agency, I saw 4 different types of persian
       keyboards in use in different departments, in one of them
       the letter "peh" was where the tilda is in the standard qwerty
       keyboard.
