I do not have a computer so I, June Homan at [ ... ] am asking that a friend with a computer send this to you so we can avoid the anthrax delay.
 
The Access Board is suggesting that audible traffic signals are necessary for blind persons to travel safely in traffic. I have observed thousands of blind people as the travel. I have NEVER seen any problem. This recommendation is so very, very bad that it should immediately eliminated, which would also save millions of dollars.
 
Along with the above silly idea about traffic signals come one about dectible warnings. I have watched thousands cross street and they have no problems. I have walked on the signals and find that they will catch high heels and that they can be very slick. They are dangerous. Please stop this very silly idea.
