A Cornflake Moment

"I brought my Dad to JDA's Technology Room where he tried one of the powerful amplified phones. I left the room with one handset, leaving Dad holding the other. 'What did you have for breakfast Dad?' I asked. 'Cornflakes' he replied. I burst into tears - of joy - as this was the first time in years I'd had a meaningful response from him by phone."
