You're right with me Dave. That's exactly what I was thinking about too. I still see this kid with a Tiny Tim crutch. The last time I thought of a kid on crutches in NY was when I saw one on TV break dancing. This kid was too cool and good -- I mean good! He was using forearm crutches and didn't bear any weight on his legs at all. They didn't even touch the ground. They put him in the same show with other kids break dancing; no special or different attention, they just gave him is turn on TV along with the others. That show portrayed a normal kid doing a normal thing with other normal kids.
