The ADA at its best
The Americans with Disabilities Act was created to assure that all Americans have access to public accommodations. That is a noble goal. But I was struck with this sign in a Red Carpet room about the absurdity of implementation. As noted the sign is in letters and braille. I was wondering just how a blind gentleman would find his way to the Men's room and to the sign and then be able to guess the right height for being able to assure himself he was not going into the wrong place.

a) It may be that there are height standards.
b) really? this is the totem that represents the ADA to you?
No just one of those oddities that I cannot reconcile.
