PER CURIAM

Our review of the record leads us to conclude, as did the referee, that claimant is permanently and totally disabled. Since the question is purely factual, we see no useful purpose in publishing an extended opinion. See Hoag v. Duraflake, 37 Or. App. 103, 585 P.2d 1149, rev den 284 Or. 521 (1978); Bowman v. Oregon Transfer Company, 33 Or. 241, 576 P.2d 27 (1978).

Reversed.
