[LM_NET] Heroes for High School Seniors

[Joanne Troutner <jtroutner@TSC.K12.IN.US>]

Folks,

My brain is dead.  I'm looking for heroes that would appeal to high 
school seniors who have overcome obstacles.  I'll be hunting for short 
bibliographic articles for students to read on these people.

Currently my brain says Lance Armstrong and Christopher Reeves.

Any other ideas for me?

Thanks much in advance.
