Jay is pretty darned amazing.

In a similar vein: Over 50 years ago, my sister, then in college, also worked at a residential rehabilitation institute for physically challenged children. Now and then she would ask me to come and play a few songs for the kids. There was one small, profoundly deaf, young boy who would sit beside me on the auditorium stage and rest his fingertips very gently on the lower bout of my guitar. This was how he "heard" the music. Now and then if he seemed to particularly enjoy a selection, he would place his other hand on the back of the instrument. I could tell from his facial expressions when he sensed happy, sad, quiet, or intense moods in the songs. I still remember that small boy 50 plus years on.
