Yeah, I made a remark wbout the few number of cuers as evidence that, despite 41 years of existence, it is not an effective method of edcuation or language acquisition. Cloggy retorted with the fact that there are fewer deaf than hearing, so they should have to comply with the majority hearing. Totally false rasoning, but that's where it started. Kind is a telling thing about the attitude toward minorities, though,isn't it?
