There's been a lot of attention to a new kind of sign language.

People Sign Language by Melissa Regas.

This has sparked a lot of hate mail and death threats from the ASL extremists who misundsrstand it's intended to replace ASL. I dont see it that way. I dont see it as a language to replace ASL . I see it as a language that could be understandable by the global deaf community like Esperanto.

YouTube - Who is Allowed in the Deaf Community?!?!?

And my response vlog

I commend Melissa Regas for her bravery going through this gauntlet from the ASL extremists.
