"Special Needs Forum"

Would something else be more appropriate?

I have seen the term "Differently Abled" used. No indication of disability just a different approach. How about "Woodies with a Difference" or "Woodies-Thinking Outside the Box?" (sorry.) "A new Approach to Old Issues"? I like the idea but it needs to be inclusive rather than exclusive. I find the Woodturning forum very welcoming and the idea of solving some "different problems" would probably be welcomed there. Maybe a spot advising those with a different need to state their issue and use the amazing ingenuity of their friends to the advantage of all.
