(That is the panel topic not the convention topic.) I will post the abstract in my next note, but I cannot include here because system line max is 60. Abstract 54 plus these comments ...... Anyone with additional ideas or even better with info that fits into my framework, please either post info here or send me in email to NRCGSH@RITVAX.BITNET The panel is on March 23. One speaker is on culture of the deaf. Another will talke about federal legislation and the disabled and the third will talk about the history of disability organizations. I will talk about the impact of assistive devices in reducing the impact of physical disabilities. Will post my abstract as a reply to this message.
