There's a boy here in San Diego who plays regularly at the Park, or did. He has no arms; they qwere deformed into stumps at birth.

He plays with his bare feet and does so better than a lot of people who are endowed with normal limbs. His toes have been worked to the point where he makes chords with them and they are practically prehensile.

He sounds pretty good. But what really tears at you to see him play is the sheer guts of the guy, and the long trail of self-disciplined and painful learning he must have fgone through to develop such skills.
