Daniel Kish is the president of World Access for the Blind, a non-profit organization which teaches blind persons to use echolocation to increase their mobility. Totally blind, he bikes in traffic, hikes, and gets around without conventional visual aids--using only a slight clicking of his tongue to echolocate his surroundings. Like a bat. And he is teaching others to do it too.
