Count me in and I'll be mailing you right away. This device has eabled me to do so many things. It's really a blessing. COPD robbed me of my stamina.
I scanned my parking permit and with a little size reduction, transferred same to some bumper sticker blanks I purchased and attached it to the front plate. I may still order some of those decals Shawnee mentions above.

Hello All -
I have been a lurker for months on SegwayChat and just decided to participate. I have an interest in seeing new legislation that allows for the use of a Segway HT as an assistive mobility device. I have had my HT since last October and have used it to improve my "Quality of Life". In fact, it was Robert (God1138) that gave me my first demo. Thanks Robert! QuadSquad, it is your tenacity that has convinced me to start participating. I have already spoken with Mike Schneider about my experiences with WDW and hope his article will make a difference.

To whom it may concern:
I have recently mad a post that has caused me some concern.

I would like to make it very clear that I do not think it is unsafe for Segway’s to be in the theme parks. It has been brought to my attention that I had posted that it would be unsafe.
For the record I do not.

I would also like to thank my friends that brought this to my attention.

If you have any questions please feel free to email me at

Quadsquad, Although I'm not disabled (at this time - who knows what the future will bring), if there's anything I can do to help, please let me know.

I've already emailed Jerry re this, but I'll put my hand up here "for the count"

I'd also like to welcome Shawnee to the group! Hi there from Aus!

Shawnee was the person responsible, months ago, for convincing my wife that the Segway would help her! She wrote the most beautiful letter which helped her make up her mind to give it a try! For that I'll always be in her debt!

Cheers

Ron

There are a little over six thousand Segway owners!

I'm one in a million!

Shawnne and Entil-Zha ... welcome to our world! As you said, the HT has changed our lives and enriched us and the ones around us that we have so depended upon both emotionally and physically.

Jerry,
You can count on Emily and I being involved in such an endeavor.

What do you see as the primary goals or objectives for this group?

Can I join even though I don't own a Segway? I am determined to own one. I'd love the see the changes in my life that have been evident in the lives of others.

I replied via email, so this is my public "count me in".

I use my Segway as a mobilty device, for fun and because it is environmentally friendly. In other words, it gets me places that I cannot reach on my own two legs, I take it for joy rides and I commute to work on it instead of using my car. I knew the day I saw it unvieled on TV that it would be life changing for me. Makes me wonder why I waited months to get one. Now that I have one I won't give it up!
