Blind man sees a smart car.

Was just browsing through the odd news stories over on digg when I ran across this. A man had a part of his tooth implanted in his eye to restore his sight. If that wasn't odd enough I found this while reading through the article:

"'The first car I saw when my sight was restored was a Smart car and I couldn't stop laughing - I'd never seen one before and I thought it had been chopped in half."

The rest of the story here:

Blind man sees wife for first time after having a TOOTH implanted into his eye | Mail Online

Enjoy.

Well..... I guess that worked out well! It could have gone the other direction, entirely! "Blind man sees wife for first time after having a tooth implanted (???) into his eye, and goes running and screaming from the house!!!

That is one person whom I certainly don't mind laughing at a smart. Glad the operation was a success and the story ended happily for him and his wife.
