[HANASHIR:15369] Music show on 60 Minutes

Hi all---
      This Sunday night, the 28th of September, 60 Minutes will feature David 
Mehnert and his student Rex. Rex is 8 years old and a musical savant. Rex is 
blind and retarded but can play piano like a pro. I nominated David for a 
Volvo for Life award recently and he was one of the 10 finalists. He won 10 
thousand $$. Then Volvo contacted me about putting him on tv with Rex and we 
decided 
60 Minutes was the best place. So---we do know that after filming David and 
Rex they went to England to film Dr. Adam Ockelford and a boy Derek who plays 
jazz piano who is also a blind savant. He's amazing. It should be a very 
enjoyable show since we all are musicians. Be sure and tune in. Enjoy!!
P.S. David is not a music therapist
