I've stated before, that I don't wish to survive the end of this planet. For if I do (lol) I will be exposed to all others having to complain (if you know what I mean). It is difficult to learn the basics of swimming.... when one is drowning. The best time to address those issues are not after the fact, but during the summer when the coast is clear.. when it comes to issues involving the placement of snow when it falls in the winter. That way when the problem occurs you go back to those who were involved in the discussion process to explain why their own agreement and understanding procedures were not followed. Is this easy? no. It never is. But you have a better argument when you have something on paper or a formal agreement. Best Wishes W In a message dated 1/29/2009 2:24:09 P.M.

1000% mega-Amen. I was just whining and wishing, not making a call to action. I look at it like my need to do guerrilla parking to accommodate my ramp is just another challenge in the minute-to-minute, day-to-day adventure that is being a quad. Eeeha! Right now outside Boston we have heaps of snow. Guess where piles go in parking lots? They use the spaces that are empty when they plow, which are most often the HC spots. And even the clear sidewalks in downtown can be challenged with piles at the corners. Last week I bumped up onto the sidewalk from the street and after a startled look, mouth wide open, a woman shreiked at me "You are brave!" ...and that was one of the easier corners. The Good News is that when my (power) wheels are spinning and I need a push and a shove, anybody nearby is quick to respond. ____________________________________ From: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, January 29, 2009 2:34:47 PM Subject: [QUAD-L] It's not worth it- or is it? Major rehab hospitals in our area and have 100's of parking spots dedicated to both cars and vans. And yes, they are always full of vehicles that park in those areas with the proper documentation. Asking for more parking places would be nice, but what is more important are those who don't use those same parking spots properly or with disregard for others. Choose your battles wisely.....

This happens regularly to me on weekends at the local cineplex (in a Boston MA suburb), even though there are about twenty HC spots. No easy solution, I'm sure. Seems to me though, that the number of HC spaces should be related to the number of HC placards issued. And maybe also the places HC'ers frequent (like movie theatres) should be required to have more. ____________________________________ A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above. _See yours in just 2 easy steps!_ (http://pr.atwola.com/promoclk/100000075x1215855013x1201028747/aol?redir=http://www. freecreditreport.com/pm/default.aspx?sc=668072&hmpgID=62&bcd=DecemailfooterNO6 2) **************A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above.
