Like you, for example, wasn't that you Shel who was able on occasion to translate posts which were written in ASL syntax into standard English for those who didn't understood them?

Fuzzy, I've never pretended to be really fluent in ASL and I should point out that many d/Deaf did not learn ASL until after they became adults. So how could be ASL be a factor in their writings? Cheri has been pointing that out to you too.

It's very clear to most posters that English is my first langauge so ASL isn't a factor in my writing even though I'm weak in both spelling and puncuation.
