[Blindtlk] Letter to the Editor: Dining in the Dark events re:[blindtlk] fw: MIRA Foundation

[Hyde, David W. (ESC)]

To follow up on Mikes post, the origin of the premise that being out in public and that it not be viewed as either contributory or comparative negligence stems from an article from the Stanford Law Review by Dr. TenBroek entitles 
"The Right to Live in the World; The Blind, Disabled, and law of torts.) For those who like to go way back to how things started, this is it. To my mind, at least, it serves as the basis for the civil rights laws passed regarding disabilities.

Mike I know you are right. During the week the blind students from the colorado center were injured and I gbelieve one was killed there were people out there that thought somehow they were responsible just because they were waiting for the bus.
