My father had congestive heart failure. even though he could barely stand up and walk, due to both lack of strength and pain in his legs due to pore blood circulation. His doctor once opined that he shouldn't be able to get out of bed in the morning let alone climb a flight of stairs, which he did every day, to get to his office with quite some difficulty. For the last 5 years of his life he refused to get a handicapped permit, even though he easily qualified, because he wouldn't take a space from someone who needed it more than he did. Everytime I see someone who can easily exit a sports car and walk a couple hundred yards in one of those spaces it makes my blood boil, just a little. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
