I'm just saying that there would be more protests if it turned out that Lenin was the one given the inclusion of a specific question about having a disability. It would be seen as an underhanded attempt to throw one off—a counter productive question. People (if there are any) would argue that most any famous person could be said to have a disability: Franklin, the gout; Washington, false teeth; Napoleon, short. I tried to be honest and forthright. By adding a question with an unequivocal "yes" under disability, I meant it as one normally understand it: how the government, the IRS, insurance companies, and the general public would consider a disability.James Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04871338738388893364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3808227584959676379.post-15174952994709350982013-02-01T14:06:24.019-05:002013-02-01T14:06:24.019-05:00The question was: Did you have a disability?

The key, though, is that this person has a major disability.

The only possible hitch is that they were both writers. But the complete question about being a writer was "Were you a writer...or any other kind of artist?" I'm not so sure that people consider the writings of these two to be artistic or aesthetic. We're back to the old stumper: what's art?Big Mykhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09488250533536442903noreply@blogger.com
