Most of us are really passionate about music, but a fact about Mike
VanPortfleet from Lycia has me totally in awe.

As some of you know, Mike suffers from brittle diabetes. This effects
everything in the body and can often cause peripheral neuropathy (numbness to
the extremities) and failing vision, among the many other horrors this
illness brings.

Sitting back and listening to Lycia, it is a marvel that a man in that much
physical discomfort has been able to create some of the most lush and
atmospheric music  that many bands have aspired to emulate.

Imagine loving *sound* so much, that one would forge ahead despite physical
discomfort to get the notes in their head recorded.

Next time you pull out your Lycia CD's, sit and listen with a new head. This
is truly a work of passion AND pain that somehow transcends words.
