<DIV>My concern is that if we worry about that too much, we won't do anything.
I've been a victim of an attack in a place where I thought I was being taught
and helped. It's not just out there. It's in the blind centers and other places
too. If we don't step out, we get stuck and being stuck is worse than decaying
because there is no movement.</DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=4>Asking for help can be very dangerous, exactly what I was
talking about. You can end up being kidnapped by someone intent on doing
harm, as is very evident in the news these days. Not just city streets,
but college campuses are not safe at all.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>I certainly admire the independent travel, and I know it is
a source of pride, but the world is becoming more and more perilous, and
not just for females. Anyone can be a victim. </FONT></DIV>
