[This is from the Blink Talk Conference]

Am hoping some folks who have attended various centers during, say, the past 4
years and also that Brad Scott will see this message. I think that some had to
change their position on barring dog guides because lawsuits were gonna happen
if they didn't--discrimination, you know.  From what I've heard, AEB still
requires people to go through the cafeteria line without the dog.  Let's hang
around and see what anyone has to say.  I do think, to varying degrees, that
the blindness community/field is a lot more open-minded toward doggies.
