Young healthy people never think of those things when designing.
Laws now force them to a point to make access. I'm even surprised
at some hospitals and medical centers that have narrow doorways
instead of one just a few inches wider.

If architects and interior designers had to use crutches and a
wheelchair for a week, you'd see a lot of changes in the future.


How about all the computer programs and graphic displays that only
allow people who have the eye sight of an eagle to use them? Again,
created by young people who obviously don't have a clue how the rest
of us live.


That's why Windows and browsers allow for different font sizes.
I'll leave doing the Internet via cell phone to kids who can -see-
that little 3.4" screen. Sheesh!


Likewise my android allows me to scale up a site and then to reformat it to
fit the screen at the increased font size. What is all of this crying I'm
hearing? We get old. Our eye sight fails. Our hearing fails. Listen to
this group of old timers here - complaining and blaming it on inconsiderate
young people. Come on guys...
