“Of which the automobile has become a major contributor. How very perceptive. Thanks for pointing out that irony.”
Ah, another FR “doctor.” Do you hang you shingle outside the front door?
You are as bad as the people you berate on this thread. You make the same snap judgments that they do.
Just because I appreciated the irony pointed out by one poster that the automobile has led to the decline of the health of our nation through lack of exercise (why walk when you can drive) and bad eating habits (fast food was invented for the motorists), you feel that you must berate me also.
You might note that it was I that started this thread and you might want to ask me why.
My wife lost most of her foot in an auto accident about four years ago. She has only a small portion of her heel remaining. It is very painful for her to walk long distances and she uses handicapped spaces to park. She has been approached many times by people thinking that she shouldn't be using these spaces. When this happens she asks them to wait just a second so she can fix her shoe, props herself against something and proceed to remove the shoe and replace it. She then looks back up and asks what it was they wanted. After seeing her "peg leg" as she calls it they just go away sometimes apologizing most often not.
I would also add that my mother has been crippled since she was 13 by polio and my youngest granddaughter cannot walk because of cerebral palsy.
You berated me just because I enjoyed a bit of irony, so you see that you are just as bad as those you berate by calling them doctors. You made me take my wife's shoe off to prove what I should have never had to prove.
