Beginning March 31st, consisting of 3 seperate programs, Public Television is broadcasting an Innovation Miniseries titled "People in Motion". Within this particular miniseries, advances that help bring new independence to people who are disabled is examined. Basically it involves the ways new technologies, advances in medical science and change in personal attitudes alter society's notion of physical disability. Included in one of the programs, I believe the third one (airing 4/14, check local listings) deals with a fellow named Tom who has PD, who uses Virtual Reality in some way or another for help. Basically the final program of the series deals with space-age technologies. It appears to be an interesting program series. It appears it is slated to air at 9pm on these 3 consecutive fridays, 3/31, 4/7, and 4/14. If anyone would like more info on these particular segments, I have a breakdown of each one.
