3/25-A TEN-YEAR-OLD BOY ONCE SAID HE PREFERRED RADIO TO TV BECAUSE, "THE PICTURES ARE CLEARER." BOB RODRIGUEZ FEELS THAT WAY ABOUT BEING BLIND!



ROBERT RODRIGUEZ, popular folk-lorist who triggers vivid, even breath-taking images from the greenest part of Ireland to ancient Persia to the Cape Fear River banks of North Carolina where people still speak Elizabethan English to folk festivals in Wales has been totally blind since birth.  Once when he told Sara and Barry he wandered to the club car on a train to "watch the scenery", Barry seemed a bit surprised.  A pin-drop would have seemed like thunder as Rodriguez explained his version of "the mind's eye".  Rodriguez is just back from a trip.  He visits Sara and Barry tonight to tell them what he "saw".
