Other than that, this particular video seems very apt (for some). And this one. Also apropos, from Ludwig Wittgenstein (philosopher): Whereof one cannot speak, thereof one must be silent. LW's brother Paul was one of the great pianists of his day despite the fact that he lost an arm in WWI. It seems to me that the statement that prompted (brother) Wind to post is so off-base, confused, misguided, etc. that it doesn't merit a reply or a response. I've probably said too much already.
