Re: [QUAD-L] Just wondering: Me Too

Traveling, even locally has become an awful task at it's very best. Last time I used public trans to the doctor I spent 45 minutes at the curb awaiting pickup and 3 hours awaiting the ride home. I was late for a doctors visit that took all of 20 minutes. Long distance..pfffft. That doesn't exist. I haven't left Cincinnati since 1979 and I can't see how that will change. I hear about handicapped accessible busses and such, but when I call, they have no idea what I'm talking about. The busses in cincy all have the little blue and white accessibility sign but refuse to pickup wheelchairs. In cases where I use public transportation I must call 24 hours ahead of time and then it is a crap shoot as to when they will arrive and if they can get me back home.   john   p.s. I dunno if anyone is getting this or not. a lot of my posts have been returned.     In a message dated 1/7/2006 10:24:36 P.M.
