>Wonder if they will insist that government cars be operable by blind people?

Cindy,

Reminds me of when I did some training for the Orange County government on Beginning DOS, Lotus 1-2-3 ans such. We were given parking passes for their multi-level parking garage. A buddy of mine mentioned to me that he had noticed that the elevator controls were in Braille. While I'm sure that the elevator companies make *all* control panels that way as a means of reducing production costs it did evoke a funny picture in our heads. Imagine a blind person saying, "Ahh, here we are, the fourth level", finding their car and driving out of the structure,

Crash, crash bang, scrape, bang, crash.. < rof'l >

Best,
Best,


DD
