More people with disabilities cruisin'

Jim Mullen, disabilities issues reporter for Chicago's CBS TV station filed this piece about more people with disabilities taking cruises. No hard stats -- this is from a TV news operation after all -- but some interesting anecdotes. And alas one unsatisfying fact, not at all the fault of Mullen. He closes with the observation that "unless you need a special room or special equipment such as a chair lift, prices are not much different from other cruises." Why should there be even a dime difference I ask? (Photo by Mike Rash via morgueFile.com)
