    Precisely because is has no discernable effect; if it did, it would be subject to critical judgment, and that is undesirable.

    Idiots, simply by being idiots, seem capable of achieving randomly bad things that are beyond the imaginings of sensible people.

    first off let me say that I am in no way trying to deminish what this guy has done with his disabilities. he's nothing short of impressive.

    now NASCAR v F1. even in my lay understanding I would think turning left isn't as hard as turning left and right.

    It's still racing. You have to be better than your other competitors, and they're trying to do the same. It's different from F1, but there's still some really high level engineering going on.

    engineering is engineering. from that vid, it looks like he's mostly a CAD designer or some such. job wouldn't be much different for an F1 team.

    Y'know, I really wish more of you had seen it.

    The most impressive thing, to me, was his treatment of the issue of having no arms - absolutely did not dwell on it, and you could see that he got this from his folks.

    In a nutshell, it was "born with no arms...huh" - and he moved on.

    Amazing.
