[Sportsandrec] No AdapTap System Necessary

Hello Robin and everyone,

    And what do you do if these adaptations limit our chances to participate 
in recreational and athletic activities? This is no different than 
over-adapting streets with tactile warnings and audible traffic signals and 
a host of other modifications to the environment that serve to limit us in 
other areas of our lives. It needs to stop!

  Hello:

I don't THINK we should try to IMPOSE our views of what works for us
upon others.

If adaptation helps, use it. if it doesn't, don't use it. It's that SIMPLE.
