Yeah, that's always going to be the problem: lack of authority to demand change. But in the event that someone genuinely does want to do better, and just lacks the information -- or someone who would want to do better if they were just, you know, exposed to the radical idea that perhaps PWD are people too -- I have hope that letting people know would be a good thing ...

Yeah, we were building a new pharmacy and his suggestions were very helpful - for example, the shape of the lot meant that we had to have a very long building, but simple and cheap changes like adding a chair near the front for people who might not be able to make the walk down to the dispensary made a big difference.

It's amazing what the little things can do, isn't it?
