		<description>Thanks for the link to Karen Putz's blog and twitter feed. I'm glad that she's sharing her story which highlights the accessibility problems of services (whether web or physical service). I'm also glad to have another blog to follow :)

As for voting - done! Good luck Glenda!</description>

		<description>Blenda:

I blogged about it too in my weekly gratitude post.  My gratitude went to Karen Putz for having the courage to stand up and be counted in the face of withering criticism and pressure.  Her story both inspired and pressed some deeply hidden buttons that I didn't know existed!

Thanks for helping a fellow blogger spread the news - she's my buddy too!</description>

		<description>Hi Angela,

Going inside is certainly an option, but I believe I have the same rights as any other person to use the drive thru.  I've used it many times at other places and even at that same restaurant.  Most people are willing to take my order at the window once I explain my situation.</description>

		<description>Whatever happened to customer service in this situation?

The only other thing I would ask is why didn't your friend go inside the fast-food place to place her order?</description>
