Hi All, Michael as luck would have it I had to go out of town immediately after asking for some thoughts on our coverage of California budget cutbacks. I appreciate your comments. Both points of view matter to us. Both the larger question of who will be hurt and how it will affect disabled people.
To me the main questions are to bring out as much as we can and help people understand how important it is to unite as much as possible. More or less exactly what you were focused upon. In Illinois over last few days I was amazed at the conversations about disabled rights there. Two interesting points of speculation were that Newton and Cavendish were Autistic. Especially Cavendish seems a likely savant. I was talking to one person who does fundamental work in mathematics who struck me as cognitively interesting. A fundamentalist Christian doing higher math. The dissonance I saw in him was absolutely amazing. There seems like so much work to be done about who we are and what is the underlying structures of organizing people. Anyway thanks for the response I just got back. We'll be on the air tonight trying to get at the issues. The discussions over the last few days have been helpful to us. in solidarity, Doyle
