i  would like to express my thoughts and feelings on the subjeect of
para-transit.  first of all i feel any form of special accomadation
which is unnecessary is another form of segregation.  i do agree
para-transit should be an option or reserved for those who really need
it.  yes it is unreasonably high.  of coarse everyone has their own
feelings on the subject this applies only to me.

..integration not segregation
