Blind law listers:

I just ran across a family law CLE agenda for my local county bar
association that contains t following agenda topic:

2:15     I'd Rather Go Blind Than See You Walk Away From Me:  Stories
from the Relocation Trenches

Panel discussion of recent problems in interpretation and enforcement of
the Relocation Act

Before I knee jerk react against this language, I'd like to hear what
you all think about the agenda item title stating that the presenters
would rather go blind than have a custodial parent relocate.  Perhaps it
can be construed as a positive statement about being blind.  What do you
think?

Noel
