your neuro's wrong (and Greta's right!)

I have failed this test for a decade, yet I still walk.

I use a cane and bilateral AFOs when I have to go more than about 100 yards.

or stiff-sided sturdy hiking boots for ankle support.

lol, I just tried it!

left hand did fine, right hand flunked miserably... landed in the region of my eyebrow.

I have to do it SLOWLY, lest I poke an eye out here.
