So.... sue them already. Who cares how they spin it afterwards. You'll have your access, right? I am sure that there must be more to it than simply filling out a form pointing out an ADA violation, but I haven't been fighting the fight so I don't really know. Maybe you can talk more about what you're doing with disney?

You do have brass....

Sue ? That sir would just increase the amount of time it would take to reach a resolution. All you need do is look how long it took Jerry Kerr when he sued the airline for his rights. REMEMBER HE IS THE REASON WE CAN FLY WITH THE SEGWAY There were no others willing to step up to the plate. Are you a person with a disability ? If your are then you should be out daily walking the walk, being seen , telling the story, reaching out to any media you can find, and refusing to leave the Mall when security asks. Be your own advocate. And if your not take notice, the only way AB's will ever get the Segway access they seek will be through the work of groups now working for disability access. Here's the truth, when someone chooses the Segway as a mobility aid they know what they are getting into as far as these things are concerned, So be ready to be a trailblazer. What am I doing with Disney and the Malls, I chose not to disclose that information, but I will say that this is being handled the same way any other of these situations are, behind the scenes with people of power. Government moves slow, and if you don't have the stomach for that fact then use another device. Until someone else gets it done for you. Another thing I do is dig deep into my pockets, along with a very small group of others to keep "fighting the fight". I fly around, make tons of calls, meetings both local, state and federal. I also help with giving Segways to American Heroes returning from war. Oh, and yes I beat the drum here. Over and over and over. With that I have just scratched the surface of what I and others do for the cause. So there you have it. Be Big, Alan PS-THE ABOVE ARE MY PERSONAL COMENTS AND IN NO WAY REFLECT THE VIEWS OF DRAFT. THATS THE REASON I USED THE WORD "I", NOT DRAFT, IN RESPONCE TO THIS POST.
