Peppy, One of the best pool players on the planet is a young man from South Dakota, Shane VanBoening (sp?). He is 90% hearing impared. One of the keys to his many championship wins is that he plays with his hearing aids off. Fewer distractions, no sudden noises to "shark" him in mid stroke. I'm not saying your son should take up pool, but often people with limitations in one area can develop amazing skill in other areas.
Here's Shane on his way to another championship...
