ORDER

The opinion filed September 16, 1999 is hereby amended as follows:

At Slip Op. 11836, headnote [13], lines 11-16 [192 F.3d at 1237], delete “Thus, the sleep disorder and sexual dysfunction merely help to establish that the impairment (panic disorder after treatment) affects a major life activity; they are not relevant to the reasonable accommodation discussion, however, which focuses on the post-treatment panic disorder’s manifestations in the workplace and the employer’s response to them”.

At Slip Op. 11836, headnote [13] [192 F.3d at 1237], lines 21-24, replace “The two inquiries become related only to the extent that the disability may impact the employer’s ability to craft a reasonable accommodation for the employee” with “The two inquiries-namely, whether McAlindin is disabled and what constitutes reasonable accommodation for that disability-only intersect to the extent that McAlindin’s disability manifests itself in the workplace”.
