He has posted in this echo a few times, if you can, check back for his name,
you might remember him.

For sure, I've talked to a few quads in the past about stuff, but now it seems
a lot of people as me of my opinion on the disabled community stuff, I guess
I've become a person to come to with questions. Good grief!

Agreed! I really find most people pretty good around my wheelchair, but then
again, I do have control of my life, I find some people like to play head
games more than anything, to bad they mostly loose with me.

Yes, I do, people with disabilities are looked at differently, and for sure
treated differently, I live it every day, they have to watch out, I'm a
survivor, so they give me respect, they get it back.
