Personally, I think we spend far too much time trying to be
politically correct and not enough time concentrating on the real
issues. What is wrong with "disability sport"? What is wrong with
"blind people" (of which I am one)? This sort of stuff simply creates
things for people to argue about rather than addressing the real
problems faced by people with disabilities - like access to employment,
access to transport and access to social activities - and even access to
academia. I suppose we'll be changing the name of this mailing list
next!
