  19. Yes, I can agree with you. While high school was no social picnic
  20. for me either, and while I can relate to your feelings of the small
  21. town (having grown up in a town of 520 people) and even considering
  22. my childhood, I would not be very willing to trade that. It is very
  23. saddening to think that there were no facilities for blind people
  24. in public schools for so many years. My parents, along with six
  25. other couples, were the ones who fought so that the schoolboard
  26. would put in the facilities, and it has always been something I've
  27. been happy for.
