 | | Because one’s physical capabilities, limitations and equipment affect the access achievable under a given set of environmental and design conditions, and one’s point of reference colors one’s perception of access, we’ll tell you about ourselves. | | | We try to describe in nuts and bolts terms access conditions you may encounter that other sources of information take for granted and, therefore, omit. | | | We didn’t see any accessible taxis or learn of any from our research. |
