Hey guys long time no see! My bad.. very busy. I think most of you have heard of the Miami Project to Cure Paralysis out of Miami Florida. I am in contact with the staff there and our support group was sent this request so if any body is in the LA area please contact me and I will forward your info: A new car company is having focus groups to gather info for a new vehicle they plan to put on the market in 2010. It will be built from the ground up without needing any modifications!!! Having the disabled person in mind when it is built! Below is the e-mail we recieved.

Hi I received an email from Marc Buoniconti's secretary Teresa asking if anyone knows some people in the L.A. area with SCI.They are looking for participants for a focus group in L.A. If anyone has any info on this,please let me know.Thanks. Ron W

Focus group being held in LA. If it is the same one I did it is one day 3 hours with info about car and your feedback. You get snacks and paid cash. Ours was $75.00. Trying to find out if this is same topic of discussion!
