Isn't it just a bit interesting that Larry is being made out to be the bad 
guy in this situation when all he's trying to do is be a representative of 
people who are blind and Mr Cannon appears to be the good guy even though 
he's tried to eliminate those who are excellent role models for other blind 
folks in the state. Maybe it is who you know, after all, not what you know. 
Just thinking out loud.
