[Nfbf-l] Fast food guide dog ; was "Amtrak"

[Dan Hicks]

Wow, this is just too strange. I thought $186,000 was a lot to pay a lawyer
as a retainer, but if he flew to the sesame seen farm to get a sample, I
guess the expenses in your case might be a bit high. However, would it not
be much less expensive -- and create a much easier to follow "seed" trail --
to just go to the fast food place a buy hamburger with the sesame seeds on
it to use as a match for the doggy-dropping you have in your freezer? They
don't even have your sample yet. Why are they matching DNA? I think the best
thing to do would have been to talk to the employee and nip this whole thing
in the bud. Sorry, but I do not think you will win your case. You might
contact FLAGDU for a second opinion. I guess we'll see.
