An observation, Colleague strohson, that you can take for what it is worth. YMMV, &cetera and so forth:
Could just be the web cam, but its worth pointing out that he's the sort of kid who, if he was in the pediatric hospital, everybody would sort of suspect had some sort of 'syndrome' and eventually someone would wrassle a genetic screening test out of him to prove their conjecture. I mean, there is an oddness about him that makes one suspect he may be the victim of a cruel roll of the genetic dice. Of course, not doubt that most kids at that age look like mutants. But this one more so than the norm.

Ha! It's been 25 years since I dropped out of med school, a victim of a jealous mistress...or was it a bad corner man...but I still got the knack!
