lot of acclaim for the work the San Francisco Light House and its partners have done. But I haven't flown through there since before pandemic. Again, maybe we need a little group to dig into this a little bit. I’m going to reach out to COS airport director
today as a follow-up here. <u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi, all,<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I was intrigued by this little slice of an article I read in the Denver Post about a bill to improve accessibility at DIA:<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Before it was amended, the bill provided grounds for potential lawsuits if the airport failed to meet several deadlines that are still set out in the legislation. Those include
installing wayfinding technology to serve people who are blind or vision impaired by the middle of this year;<u></u><u></u></p>
