    FB update:

    Michael will be at Comic-Con this Saturday. If you will be there keep an eye out for him.

    If you're going and you see him let us know here!

    I've been updating the thread here when I see new postings on the FB account. There haven't been any in almost a year so I'm hoping that means he's recovered from his injuries.

    I think some parts of his recovery are still ongoing. But it seems that he's made a LOT of progress and has been working again as a VFX artist according to his twitter.

    That's good to hear. The FB page hasn't been updated since last year.

    Wow, I hadn't read about this before. Glad to read that he's had a strong recovery over the years. Thanks for reposting those updates over the years, LAJ- I wouldn't have seen them otherwise.

    No probs. I think they've stopped updating the Facebook page - there hasn't been anything new in awhile.

    The physical therapist decided that Michael was ready for sitting at the edge of the bed with assistance for the first time today. It will help him with developing core strength and trunk control. This is one of the steps on the road to standing and then walking again, so we are all very excited for him.

    I regularly check the Facebook page that's linked a few posts into this thread but it hasn't been updated in awhile. If it does get updated then the information will be posted here as well.

    DC and VA have one too, same result. They don't enforce it.

    I live in Northern VA. They do enforce it, but they cant pull you over unless you are violating another traffic violation.

    They've tightened the rules here in the UK - you cannot have a phone in your hand if you are driving. There was a loophole that allowed their use if you were filming or playing a game (while driving? Seriously? I guess if you were stopped in traffic..).

    I like the UK's heightened rules. I see people driving and texting all the time. I wish they had that Texas rule where I could sue them and get a bounty.

    Hey LAJ, do you know if he ever made a full recovery? Was rooting and praying hard for him.

    Not sure. His FB donation page hasn't been updated in awhile. (Link is on first page).

    I heard from him a few years ago, but I couldn't tell you any more about his condition then than what's been said openly online. And I haven't heard anything since then.
