[NAGDU] DOT service dog forms

[Sherry Gomes]

Hi all,

A friend has been visiting me since before Christmas. While arranging his flight home in a couple weeks, he had to download and fill out the new service dog form. They were generally accessible PDF forms, until we got to the part where they require a digital signature. It was not an edit field where he could type his name. He actually has to create a digital signature. The form talks about downloading some app to do this or creating it with a physical device like a smart card. This is my personal computer, but even my work computer doesn't require a smart card. I don't particularly want to install a program that might or might not be accessible to create the signature, and even if it was, this seems way over the top in terms of requiring someone to have to install or even purchase something to do this. So, first of all, does anyone have tips on creating that digital signature, and second of all, to me, this feels completely discriminatory. I am not happy.

"The day may come when the courage of men fails,
when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship,
when the age of men comes crashing down.
But it is not this day! This day, we fight!
By all that you hold dear, by this good earth,
I bid you, STAND! Men, of the West!"
