I have problems with blue/black myself. So WHAT? You know how I cope? I don't buy dark blue clothes!!!!!
While we're talking about people w/ disabilities. How many members of congress do you see that are disabled? Is there anything about their job that requires more than a working brain and a way to communicate?
I have a small business. If I ever get big enough I may be faced w/ hiring someone to help a wheelchair bound person run my stockroom because they can't reach the top shelves. How reasonable is that?
My point is that we have let the government have too much to say as it is now!! Our government is chipping them away piece by piece.
Ask yourself this --- Who bothers you more on an airplane? A 6'5" bodybuilder or a 78 year old grandma w/ a little swiss army knife w/ scissors? Everyone is willing to give up tons of rights for a false sense of safety.
Isn't it interesting that the SNIPER is picking one of the tightest GUN CONTROL areas in the country? Could it be because if he tried it somewhere else someone might return fire?
What's next? Am I going to be told to make sure that colors on my website don't effect people with a black/blue colorblind problem. If you don't like a site don't patronize them!!
I'm sorry if someone has a disability but that is their problem. The government forcing me to change a website is mine! What happened to freedom of speech? Is the government going to pass a law that will prevent me from using long words so people that flunked out of school can understand me? What ever happened to people rising to the challenge and overcoming adversity?
People w/ disabilities have to learn to copy with the rest of us.(called the norm) We shouldn't have to expend vast amounts of time to cope w/ them. (sorry but this is reality)
Ex. How many times do you really see all those handicapped(ohh.. excuse me 'challenged') places in front of the store occupied? How many people with those tags are really held by truly handicapped people? These places need to exist but we have a LOT of people running around saying they are handicapped that aren't!
How many restrooms are closed to the public now because the store owners don't want to spend thousands to make them wheelchair accessible?

Has a lot of sympathy for Palm. At least we can be sure that the M$ FUD machine didn't have anything to do with this.
