If there is no advantage gained by such devices, then I don't see why not. _________________ "Oh my God. There she is. Lovely Sally Slater. I should speak to her. But what the hell can I say? Anything that doesn't mention that I masturbate over her memory is probably a good idea."

The case was presented that there was not. I don't see how having those is better than having feet and calves. This isn't a pogo stick. _________________ "Oh my God. There she is.

Sometimes I feel like a pogo stick.
I don't know enough about them to say anything. They do look kind of boingy. |

The olympics are meant to celebrate outstanding feats of the human body. If I lost my right arm and had it replaced with a cannon that shoots baseballs, chances are I wouldn't be eligible to play baseball.
I give the guy all the credit in the world for working hard, but his legs are artificial, like a robot. His spring-loaded legs can bend and torque in ways human legs can't. It doesn't matter if they determine his artificial legs do not provide a distinct advantage - the fact that he is using something artificial to allow him to run should prevent him from participating in a race aimed at finding out who the fastest man alive is. _________________ The Love Guru is a comedy like the Leafs are a hockey team. - G&M's Rick Groen
