Tom,
I have been working in Queens Independent Living Center and I am always
looking for a system to change.  I'm not sure on who or what "Universal
Signs" is, can you help me out with some information?  I do know that
Councilwoman Brewer was proposing a bill that would install (I believe ) ten
audible signals in NYC.  When I and others saw the bill, we quickly
suggested Audible be changed to Accessible.  Additionally I think I sent the
number on to Bob White.  I will however bring the number home tomorrow.
