I always seem to be rubbing someone's fur the wrong way on this list, and that coupled with some disturbing information I have just come across has caused me to wish to unsubscribe from this and one other NFB list that I was on.  That one had a link to unsubscribe, but this one directs me to a web page and I am at school right now, about to go out of town, and need to catch a bus, so no time to go poking around on the internet, when the server at school is running very sluggishly due to online administration of finals for summer courses today.  Long story very short, I was under the impression that NFB's antiguidedog sentaments had disipated, but I have just spoken with two individuals who were being told at an NFB training center that their dogs had to stay in their rooms and that they were not to use them.  I saw this come up in NAGDU and GDUI lists many many years ago, and assumed that something so backwards thinking and detremental to guide dog teams would have been resolved.  You know what they say about assumptions.  Bottom line, I do not feel that I am being an honest and responsible advocate of guide dogs if I continue to interact with an organization that premotes such detremental ideas.  There are some awsum people on this list, and everyone, even the people I don't particularly like, all have awsum kids, it's about the list affiliation, and nothing more.  If anyone ever wishes to write me off list in the future, my email address is craney07 at rochester.rr.com.  Have a nice summer all.
