Wow, that is odd.  I take Amtrak often, and I  have never been asked that 
question, and I have been treated with much  respect.

No that is  against, ADA about this. We had our monthly meeting last night, 
would have  loved to learned this then, but I will be contacting Amtrak, 
and forwarding  this to Mark Riccobono and the paralegals in Baltimore.

That is none of  their business how much vision you have.

> Is there a reason Amtrak asks for  how much vision a blind person has 
when calling on the phone to book a  reservation?  I ask because the last time 
I took Amtrak somewhere I ended  up being treated horribly.
