Have you tried Google or Youtube? What about the website for the City of Christchurch? You have made several requests for information easily attainable online. Don't be lazy.

You'll forgive me if I'm missing a piece of the puzzle, but if that's true, please account for the following:
Carter Sirens Rule wrote:'Hacksaw' Do you know if the thunderbolt on top of the Provo Fire Depart. Is still active?
beacause i want to try to record it or atleast hear it.

Click this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KMLImd1SgE&hd=1 if you want to watch it.
If you're deaf, how did you create said synth (and blind if using a non-Braille reader compatible program, which most audio editors would not be), know to record/listen for a Thunderbolt, and know to ask for a synth with particular port ratios?

Furthermore, if you're blind to the extent of needing braille to look things up, how could you pull the correct photos for your YouTube videos and then edit the videos (with text) to then upload to YouTube?

Also, if your computer is slow with Google, how did it have enough power to audio process your synths and videos and get uploaded to YouTube (especially considering YouTube is owned/run by Google).

Again, excuse me if there's a piece of the puzzle I'm missing. I don't mean to be disrespectful, but, something's not adding up with your response.

How can you even use the computer to see what is on the board if you are blind? Are you just being metaphorical?

well not to go off topic but....i don't know if your aware of it but there are programs out there that will read things off the internet to the blind and being from a family and community of blind folk and the only one that can see 100% in my family i can assure you the programs are out there... and besides you do know that vertum (aka josh caplinger) a well known board member from my neck of the woods has a program to operate his computer to see the board in real time called Jaws... it reads to him and tells him everything thats on screen. i dont know if this really pertains to the Op's position though.

I guess I never knew there were tools like that out there. Sounds interesting.
