This is one of the coolest stories I've read in a while. Being in a certain profession in the medical field, I just think that it is great that this athlete will be allowed to compete in the Olympic games.
A ban on Pistorius, 21, competing against able-bodied athletes, because it was feared that he might gain an advantage from running on his carbon-fibre blades, was thrown out by an historic legal decision that marked the end of a long quest for acceptance by the South African.
It is ludicrous to have thought that this man would have an advantage against able-bodied runners.
I am so happy for Oscar, and will be rooting for him this summer.
