First of all, thank you for publishing this article. Just the mere fact that it has been placed in the Internet creates a difference for the disabled community. The Internet has become a huge part of modern life and seems to me that this is the main means of communication for everyone in this day and age. The rest of the population needs to be aware of what goes on with this particular group of Americans, better yet, of HUMAN BEINGS, that in the physical sense have not had, and still in some instances, do not have it “so easy”. Education, Knowledge, is power. It is a good thing that this power is being used for the good of a portion of the population who has had to struggle for so long. And yes, we all can contribute to progress, disabled or not. We just need to see beyond the physiological aspect of the individual. Thank you again. May you have a great day.

[...] ADA 20th Anniversary On its 20th anniversary, pundits will debate what the Americans with Disabilities Act has accomplished. I still believe what I said in a TV interview after the ADA signing ceremony in 1990. “The ADA will not end disability discrimination overnight. But in a nation governed by the rule of law, getting it in writing is the place to start.” So what is the ADA's legacy? A Generation of Problem-Solvers. [...]
