I believe most hotels are adapting their rooms for ALL, not specifically the disabled. From what I've seen as well as been informed, the Holiday Inn and Marriott hotels have modified their rooms for some years. Perhaps you might want to share with us why you think we should have left things alone. I'm interested in why you feel this way. -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!385!14.0!Ann.Stalnaker Internet: Ann.Stalnaker@p0.f14.n385.z1.fidonet.org
