>>As a side note: I had no idea that Krauthammer used a wheel chair.<<

K suffered a spinal cord injury in a diving accident when he was in his early 20s and has been in a wheel chair since. BTW, he grew up in Montreal and got his degree from McGill, later his MD from Harvard and practiced psychiatry at Mass Gen.

As I recall, he came to Wash to work for the Carter Admin, yes Carter, in something to do with mental health and shortly decided political writing was for him. Won the Pulitzer in his first year as a syndicated columnist.

He's not an uncommon sight visiting the Smithsonian museums with son.

Interestingly, he's at odds with Reeves, whom he believes deludes people into thinking a cure is around the corner.
