>From at least the Neanderthal period onward, archeologists have documented
the regular appearance of impaired persons. The skeleton or an elderly
Neanderthal man found in Shanidar Cave -- who had an advanced state of
arthritis, an amputated arm, and a head injury -- and the remians of a man
with severe arthritis at Cahpel aux Saints are two I know about. The
existance of impairment is as old as the human body and the earliest known
societies: it is a "human constant" (See Gary Albrecht 1992).
