We were never denied access to the rides, though our dogs were. Somehow I don't think the dogs objected. But seriously, there is no reason to deny blind patrons access to the rides. Most rides are simple to use and quite fun (if you're just a little weird). I hope things get resolved, because I hate to see blind people (or anyone else, for that matter) denied access to something for no good reason. ~ MegaMail 2.1a #0:Fnord! -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!105!605!Nancy.Feldman Internet: Nancy.Feldman@f605.n105.z1.fidonet.org
