That's pretty good Walter.  It figures they change the law when we had 
a good thing going.  I'm surprised that a blind person can even have a 
car in his/her name.  A few years ago some friends of mine were going 
deer hunting here in Colorado and if I paid for the license, one of 
them would have gotten me a deer.  I called fish and game in Denver and 
asked about the license and they absolutely refused to sell me the 
license since I was  blind.  I said, of course, I wasn't going to do 
the shooting, at least not at the deer, but he said no way.  I had a 
big and long arguement with this guy but I went no where with it.  Now 
before any of you animal lovers go to feeling poorly about those little 
deer being killed for sport, keep in mind that most people in Colorado 
do not hunt deer for the sport but for food.  Deer stakes are as good 
as beef and probably healthier since they are naturally fed.  Anyhow, 
don't worry too much, blind people can't buy a deer license in 
Colorado.
