This is a ridiculous statement, and even worse, leaks information about your nym: [young enough to have not been there].
You are thinking of Joe "Whistler" Joe Egressia (sp?), and the kid form New York whose names escape me at the moment. These two do not even com close to "the original phone phreaks were blind". More like "at least two of the original batch of phreaks were blind".
Or are you thinking of the "Three Blind Phreaks", profiled in Wired magazine earlier this year? http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/12.02/phreaks.html --Bob.
