Again, we are in agreement. There is a gross difference between anyone who is overweight and a person who is morbidly obese. The its about the same as comparing a centimeter to a mile. Yes, we are judging and may be percised as wrong, but someone has to say something about those who have no control over their personal eating (bad) habits.God Bless Them........ but comon.WIn a message dated 5/26/2006 11:43:36 AM Central Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:Nothing bothers me more than to see people who are very overweight park in the HC spot. Contrary to your experience W, usually they have a smoke before exiting the vehicle, or before exiting the spot. I know I shouldn't judge people, but this is a hard one for me. Perhaps because I have spent all of my life fighting my weight. The concern for being overweight very rarely leaves my thoughts. Being in a chair only magnifies the concern. So seeing someone, who deigns to let themselves get so overweight really brings up my ire and resentment.
When I used a manual chair I would park far away, simply to get the exercise. Now I use the HC spots because of the extra space for my lift. Also, I admit, so that others who so often abuse the spots CAN'T park there. When only my partner is going to the store, she parks in a regular spot and I wait in the van.God but I LOVE a great Indian buffet ;-))River
