Folks let's keep things civil here. I don't think any of us want this thread locked on a technicality because too many of us are using foul or harassing language in our replies. Try to stay cool, even if you're getting baited to do otherwise. There are folks on this thread who are saying "I" a lot here... that speaks for itself, and shows that they are all about themselves. No need to dogpile them.

An update on Vegas-local advocacy efforts here: I got on the phone and managed to send an email reaching out to LVCVA's VP of Customer Safety, and am working on getting a face-to-face meeting to fact find/discuss what the convention center and monorail provides and assumes responsibility for with regards to ADA accommodation. I am also awaiting confirmation on a 30-minute appointment on Monday morning with my elected representative on the board of directors.

I would suggest being kind. Things happened last weekend that did not meet the needs of those who required special accommodation. For folks reaching out to SQEX, try not to put them on the defensive because we are admittedly requesting a heavy lift from the individual or team of folks who can actually do something about it. For folks like myself who are reaching out to the Las Vegas government side of things, let's keep things chill and try to find opportunities to work together, and limit our impulse to take an adversarial position/approach vector.
