I want to send one of my favorite diabetes papers to some doctors at the VA.

For some reason, I can’t access it. Maybe the website that hosts it went down.

The URL used to be this [http://main.diabetes.org/dorg/PDFs/Advocacy/forecast-stories/2009-05-defeating-discrimination.pdf](http://main.diabetes.org/dorg/PDFs/Advocacy/forecast-stories/2009-05-defeating-discrimination.pdf)

Is anyone familiar with this site? How do I know who published the paper? I don’t have a copy of it.

The Wayback machine found it immediately. I didn’t think it would find a pdf.

I’m gonna upload it here, so it actively exists. It’s the paper on defeating discrimination about the ADAA amendment and an airline pilot with glasses.

Can I upload a PDF on FUD?

I think you can do it if you get an admin to change the permission setting for you. I did that with a spreadsheet many years ago.

Thanks, Eric. I used to be able to do it on Tu.

It would be a lot easier to link people to the paper than teach the doctors how to use the Wayback machine. Who’s an admin?
