[This is from the Blink Talk Conference]

Check on where that funding comes from--you should be able to get your
you-know-what down to that place where they do the transit and look at records
to see where funding comes from for the whole transit/paratransit system.
That's what you do first, Willie.

Find other folks who may need to use the service at times--and I don't know
exactly how to tell you how to do that--but needs to be addressed somehow--one
way or another.  And, that damn (would like to use another word) test needs to
be stricken--that's the silliest, degrading, demoralizing thing I have heard
of in a long, long time!  Is she getting mad--yes, she is!!!  Everyone, I am
sure, would agree at least that that test is dumb!!!!!

Let me think some more . . .  Anyone else wanna jump in.  Look, Wllie, if they
can serve one group, they can serve all groups--and folks can, without damn
degrading tests, can take advantage when and if they desire.
