Comment from Robinson, C.

I just read of your ruling on chemical sensitivities and I have to say I am very disappointed. Chemical sensitivities DO impact breathing and other everyday fuctions and basic accomidations should be made. For many people with this disability they can barely leave their homes. Other such as myself have to always be alert to everything around us. I have had to leave markets/stores due to chemicals being used on the floor during the day. A very simple solution would be to limit that cleaning to after hours. Crowded areas such as fairs and theme parks are very difficult due to others spraying perfumes, sunscreen, etc while in line. A simple solution is to give us protection against those people. Why aren't my rights protected? Why does the ADA not provide assistance for me? You can allow peanut sniffing dogs for peanut allergies-why nothing for chemical allergies/sensitivities? The peanut sniffing dog covered in scented shampoo has more rights than I do. The DOJ is in the process of "banning" peanuts on flights, but what about those affected by the chemical laden wipes peanut families and other use to make their space "safe"? I can't walk by or sit near an area that has been wiped with such a wipe-I can't breathe. Why give special treatment to one allergen over another? I really hope you reconsider your postion. It would also be nice if you reconsidered your postion allowing Segways to be used as "assitance" devices. How many special needs children will have to be injured by a toy going 12 miles an hour before the DOJ finds that allowing those is a mistake. In both the Segways and peanut allergies examples I have given-they have a choice of another option. What choices do chemical allergy people have? We get to stay home.
