Index Number: 15755 The attached post is from a guy who appears to be trying to make various religious ceremonies more accessible to the disABLED community. Since he posted it in a rather obscure place, I am reposting it here, if anyone is interested. I take no position on the subject of his post. I do suggest that his questionnaire needs some work.
