     I've had 2 guide dogs, and in both classes, I knew males with dogs of
either sex and females with dogs of either sex.  Even if this were not so,
so what?  Is this really significant?  Has our politicization grown so
great that we have to concern ourselves with this kind of triviality?  I
mean, if someone wanted to contend that this had some bearing on how well
the dogs work, I could see it.  Nobody has said this.  On the other hand
there are issues of ownership where some schools transfer ownership and
some don't.  This hasn't gotten much if any comment.  I must say that I
don't get this at all.
