Ostensibly women-themed, but rather inconclusive blog entry. Not much new information in it. It should be noted that it is Cynthia's view that there is no such thing as a 'blind' spot, only 'hard to see' spots. The point is merely meant to pick up that there is nothing inevitable about the role of 'blind' spots, although of course the actual risk that 'hard to see' spots create in an event where someone has not seen is not affected by this analysis.
