Really crazy!!!

Today I just found out that there's a blind Calculus 2 teacher at UF (University of Florida). I can understand an English or History teacher being blind but Calc 2?!?! I can't imagine integrating and doing derivatives w/o seeing anything. I just thought it was pretty crazy. If anyone is wondering... his name is Theral Moore.

Applying formulas that you can't right down or plug in? Pretty challenging.

I guess it's more amazing than crazy but whatever.

There's a blind computer programmer at BSU. If you ask nicely, he'll turn on his monitor for you when you have a meeting in his office.

His wife apparently helps him alot. She comes in for exams and stuff... For attendance he passes out a sign in sheet at the end of class and sometimes people walk in at the end of class just for that (their loss I guess).
