OSH '05 Comments

There is a separate aircraft camping area in the North 40 for
handicapped at OSH.

When I walked by each day (located at the main grounds entrance from
the North 40), there were AT MOST 4 aircraft in the designated area. I
give these people a TON of credit. It appeared they all brought their
own wheelchairs and such. I didn't see ANY scooters.

There must be a hell of a lot more handicapped people these days based
upon the number of scooters. I just love the ones that literally JUMP
from their scooters to get in line for their Johnsonville Brats!!!

I prefaced my original post saying I acknowledge there are many people
that NEED these things, and I give them due credit, but I cannot
believe the numbers represented at OSH are reflective of the number of
truly handicapped, I was merely refering to the OSP (I don't consider
obesity-induced mobility loss as a handicapped, rather a self-inflicted
wound.) I have a hard time reconciling these numbers based upon my
observations at OSH. If this is so chronic, then we need Surgeon
General's warning lables on Twinkies and Brats. We must be breeding
ourselves into extinction, having traveled abroad it is quite
disgusting...
