[This is from the Blink Talk Conference]

i am not crazy about them myself.  nothing is worse than a sighted
guide who jokes around and dosen't tell you when you're on that
blasted thing!

i must point out though, if you have to use them, there is a safe
way to work the guide dog on to them and sure, the schools don't
like them but not all the guide dog schools use the proper
techniques either.  make sure before you ever try it, that you're
using the proper techniques... dan out of sight out of my mind
