Is it because he's never demeaned you yet?Ron tried to once, in the early days of Subtalk, before you were even a twinkle in your mom's eye (O.K., not quite so long ago, I am exaggerating, Ron-style.) Then I pounded my yet-unfinished-degree over his head. Then the two of us learned to respect each other: me a transit planning professional, and him a doctor. My talking about autism is really his domain. Ron and I have this continuing beef about ADA compliance, with me thinking it is mostly a waste of resources and the money could be better spent improving transit service for able-bodied people who actually use it, while Ron feels ADA compliance is something that a civilized society must have, regardless of the monetary and social cost. However, I am pro SOME ADA improvements... like the elevators that makes life easier for us able bodied people with large heavy suitcases. Like another poster said earlier, Ron can be stubborn sometimes, but he's not stupid, and he's a good scientist -- he demands analytical PROFF, sometimes in a brash style. I think you are very knowledgable and articulate... it would help if you let things go when others are clearly being brainless and stubborn. All of us are that way on some days. AEM7AC |
