Flat Laurent

Into every generation a icon is born: one flat standup in all the world, a chosen one. It alone will wield the strength and skill to fight the forces of ignorance and darkness; to start the spread of Deaf History and the swell the number of History buffs. It is Flat Laurent."

-Narrator on Buffy The Vampire Slayer-
