Another, better, Thomas Cushing

One would think that one Thomas Cushing in the world would be enough but, apparently, not only are there two (one from Flint and one from White Lake), but both are percussionists for the FIM and both went on the recent trip to Ireland with the FIM:

We have no trouble telling the two apart: the White Lake Thomas is peculiarly polite to strangers (in that he is willing to speak to a journalist), articulate (capable of full sentences, can say something other than "Leave me alone", "I'm busy" or "In a minute"), and is appreciative of all that others have given him and the opportunities he has experienced.  Who IS this kid?  I would sure love to meet him.
