Default We have been ready for this.

Although we did not institute this action we are more than ready for whats to come. This is not something we were not prepared for, we just chose to work other avenues as for as universal acceptance.

It will not be difficult to object as part of the class. All that will be needed is for people who use the Segway as a mobility aid to fill in some info that will be available at www.DRAFT.org .

We know whats coming and the be frank we were drawn into this because DRAFT/Segs4Vets is recognized as the only organization that is involved with the Segway issue at a National level. We have the info to contact a large portion of Segway users with disabilities. We also have attorney's that are both familiar with the Segway and Civil Rights law.

The biggest problem with useing outside (ACLU) people is that they have little , if any, understanding of the Segway.

DRAFT has worked since the introduction of the Segway towards acceptance as a mobility aid and has achieved huge strides in a short time.

We are more than ready to undertake this battle.

Be Big,
AMAC
