30. Good post
Armchair analysis is easy until you've been there. I was suddenly and unexpectedly paralyzed from the neck down a few years ago with a rare neurological syndrome and spent the better part of a year in a wheelchair. When I got out of the rehab hospital, it was really a trip to learn I couldn't get into my own home without being carried (three entrances, all with steps), or the bathroom (though the bedroom doors were large enough for my small wheelchair - barely.

I'm not a fan of lawsuits in general, but in this case, I'm cheering for the plaintiff all the way. I've been on both sides of this one, and the ADA is good for everyone in my book.
