I dont think a mens magazine named "Mayfair" would do well in the US.

I actually dont see much of Dave these days since he decided to get married and have children.

I still hear about him and have talked via email occassionally but he is definatly an inspiration to us all. I actually sent him the article this thread is based on. His computer 'speaks' with some rather sophisticated software and his wife describes the pictures to him.

The manner in which he became blined is horrific but he has risin above it and has quite a good sense of humor and work effort.

He did not sit back and draw disability or entitelments... although he does work for the state
