Do you think there might be a political slant to how  it seems to easier to
get access technology in Scotland?  I'm refering to the Scottish Parliament
and coalition government there.  it has a bearing, I'm thinking on the fact
it seems somewhat easier to get access technology, in Scotland, through
social services.  this would have a bearing on us in the rest of UK as,
knowing what Scotland has and how it's benefiting them, we'd want, and
campaign for the same benefits here, i.e. easier access to access
technology.

Just a thought, hope i'm not off topic here or getting the wrong end of the
stick <smile>.
