Ken and Mag (and any others who are interested) -


Another case potentially weakening the ADA, this one out of California.

In the case, a woman who uses a guide dog was prevented from taking a
dog into an area of a ferry boat, because another frequent passenger
had requested an area that was free of animal dander.  The 9th Circuit
ruled against the woman with the guide dog.

On the other hand, I could see the other passenger filing an ADA
discrimination suit, because the presence of animal dander in all
areas of the boat made it impossible for them to use the public
accomodation.

Tell me what you think of this one!

An unreasonable man (but my wife says that's redundant!)

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one
persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all
progress depends on the unreasonable man.

-George Bernard Shaw 1856-1950
