I think it looks no better or worse. If I bought a UC with one of those grills I wouldn't change it.

Yeah while it sounds like a bit of a poor set-up for a racecar, I'm all for systems that mobilize those who are physically disabled and give them more equal opportunities

Yeah mate I don't think you offended anyone. I didn't know about his hand but I did read this in the mission statement

Create a place for disadvantaged people to come and be free to create and grow using their natural talents, eg: as a child I was talented at drawing and reading drawings, knew how to pull apart anything electrical or mechanical, could repair panel work and re-assemble it, and was a gifted model builder.

Which kinda hinted about working with disabled people. I noticed if you read on, there is a fair bit more information.
