[nagdu] Story that I don't know what to think ab out

Wed Mar 28 17:11:21 UTC 2012

I'm very sorry to hear this.  The bit about someone leaving dog droppings
for you to clean up is especially annoying. But what a great maintenance
guy!
I have a plant-watering pitcher with a long spout that gets some good
water pressure.  It holds more water than a pickle jar, too, unless it's a
real big pickle jar.

It may be a long shot, but have you tried contacting the NFB in Boston, or
the NFB MA?  They may know a lawyer, or have a lawyer member, who would be
willing to help.

May Doggo's problem be cleared up soon, and the whole thing become just an
unpleasant memory.
