Hi Dave, Interesting that this topic should come up as it was a topic of contention between myself and a Doctor. You only gave three choices and as we all know, there are many who will choose names just to belittle us. In any event, I prefer to be called "a person with a disibility." NOT some of the ugly names that wary me. I'm a human being who happens to have a disability...Hey, it's different for those who haven't come into contact long enough to converse. (or won't out of fear). Besides, I make a great conversation piece! HA! Until Later....keep on swimming...keep on swimming...(too much "Nemo" for this week. Ya think? Denise Gilmore
