Tune in to the "misc.handicapped" newsgroup for more discussion. >(ON the other hand, maybe this is the wrong group for such a discussion) On the contrary, I think this is the perfect place.

Instances of unique limitations become very interesting to the engineer when viewed in this light. -- Curtis W.
