This makes me think. At the residential school here in Iowa back when I was
in early high school there was an assistant in the Recreation department who
had a perfect name for a blind child. Of course, I think I was the only
who'd say it to her. I'd say, "Would you Carrie McCain for me?" Her name,
of course, was Carrie McCain.
