One of my questions was regarding the lack of any effort by the TR industry to use RPG in any format as a recreation therapy intervention modality. It will be a few weeks before the panel meets, but here is the question as submitted to the professor tonight....

As many of you know, I have been searching for the past 18 months for a trailer that is wheelchair accessible for providing recreation therapy and related services (for free) to special needs populations, but finding the right layout (and price) has been a challenge. Today, the extremely generous folks at ClickIT RV found something and gave me a shockingly lower price to begin making this idea a reality!!!

Recently in a Facebook conversation regarding the Wheelchair Friendly RPG Trailer, I had some interaction with what turned out to be a troll. At first I thought it might be a legitimate interaction, but only too late was it clear they were otherwise... I thought it would be fun to post the interaction here for future reference.
