There is nothing in the ADA that forces anyone to use an accessable room, nor does it allow a hotel to turn a blind person away because an accessable room wasn't available. Not necessarily you Darrel, but it is clear to me there are a lot of folks saying "the sky is falling" who haven't bothered to LOOK UP at the sky to check! Come on guys let's do some research. -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!161!84.0!Guy.Thomas Internet: Guy.Thomas@p0.f84.n161.z1.fidonet.org
