Hi Rick,
What is it and where did you get it if it's still available that is.

My watch simply says it's 1:30pm when I press the button. Nothing else.
No roosters or bongs... Just the time.

Subject: I gotta get this off of my chest
Please be so kind as to forward this onto anyone and everyone who can
help me out with this matter; and please do it in a timely manner.
Thank you!
Sorry for the cross posting folks, but I gotta get this off of my chest:
Let's see. What time is it?
This is the year 2009, right? Technologically speaking, it seems
that mankind has come a long way. We regularly fly people around in
outer space, or explore the depths of the ocean, or the depths of our
DNA, or the depths of quantum physics. We are daily dazzled with
digital sound and pictures. We regularly communicate on several
high-tech devices, sometimes all at the same time. And of course, we
can go on and on with our good and wonderful accomplishments; many of
which were had without sight. Yet, and it must be simply because you
are a visually blinded individual, it is important to notify everyone
around you with the loud sound of a "bong" or "ding" or some stupid
rooster crow that you wish to know what time it is. Furthermore,
again, because you don't have the use of eye sight, it must be
important for you and everyone else around you, to hear the words,
"the time is now," or, "the time is..." It must be important to
incorporate these extraneous, unnecessary expletives in order to snap
us unfortunate blind people out of the foggy stupor we were in when
we reached for our timepiece! Oy vey! I'm going to develop a device
that must by law, be put into all visual clocks that produces a loud
"bong" or "ding" accompanied with verbiage that states: "the time is
now;" every single time a sighted person simply glances at a watch or
clock to see what time it is! What the heck is wrong with this
world! Where is all this ingenious brilliance we see displayed
everywhere else? Why can't we have a watch that simply tells us what
time it is without all of that extra, extraneous stupidity
added? Why if I happen to be near my computer, I could find out what
time it is in the middle of the Pacific Ocean; and that without one
stupid "bong" added. I want blue tooth timepieces with a blue tooth
ear bud! I want what everyone else on this planet wants: -
Privacy, independence, expediency, and dignity coupled with a
deserved level of intelligent consideration!
I know, I know. I shouldn't use so many explanation points in my
writings. But, on the other hand, I get one or two of them every
time I wish to know what time it is. Would anyone of these clock or
watch manufacturers like to ask a blind person what he or she would
like in a timepiece? I want a meeting with everyone of them, and
right away too! I just pressed a button that snapped me out of it to
let me know that time is running out on such ignorance. Please pass
this along to anybody who produces radio alarm clocks, clocks and
watches for the blind, and be sure to tell them that their time is
up! And furthermore, make it more then "affordable" for us as well!
Thank you,
John Chilelli
