Hi Everyone;
Since the Handihams issue won't go away I just can't resist sharing a few
comments. I think that you really have to experience a radio camp to truly
appreciate and understand handihams. I suspect that many here have but for
those that
haven't, yes there were some blind people but there were lots of other
people with disabilities that made blindness look like nothing. There were
lots of obvious medical issues that would make medical info necessary. It
might be a thought for some of us to consider helping at one of their
sessions. As a blind person it is easy to constantly need some type of
accommodation. This is a setting where any competent ham would have
something to offer, and give a little something back.
As for ada etc. I suspect that many of us aren't as well informed as we
should be. In most projects, however, circumstances require us to jump
through hoops which aren't always politically acceptable. We sometimes do
what we have to do even if its not our preference because in some cases the
end justifies the means.
peace
Rich
