Steve...trust me, I ain't that thin-skinned. Just messing around.

The thing that bothers me about handicapped discrimination under the ADA and a variety of state laws is the expense small to medium sized companies as well as local governments incure every time someone feels a reasonable accomodation must be made...it never stops. An emotional argument could be made on behalf of everyone of similar circumstances, regardless of how small a percentage the grouping bears to the total population.

You indicated it would be great if the Treasury could simply work new bills into circulation as we move forward. Unfortunately, it doesn't work that way. Once something has been found to be discriminatory, it has to be resolved immediately. Who pays for that?

You can't cover one person's issue and not another once you open it up.
