Sitting around, and we were writing regulations for i dont remember if it was the Fair Housing Act or the housing part of the americans with disabilities act, but anyway we were there and we were deciding you know what the rule should be for employers when it came to ramps and door knobs and sunken living rooms and all kinds of stuff like that.
