Basically Roger is telling a story about hearing dad who learned ASL for his deaf son. He used the book to learn sign languages. During baseball game where his son played on the team. His son was a lousy player and dad went to tell his son that he's very disappointed with him and as the result, the father broke his own jaw. This is because of the sign "disappoint" is designed to go to person's jaw and generally hearing people are fragile (Roger said that, not me), unlike deaf people, so as the result he broke his jaw. Then Roger went on to tell stories of other people who made attempts to sue ASL because of injuries involved with certain signs. Deaf lawyer came to defend the case by bring up "HASL" which is for hearing people where they can cover certain parts of their face with other hand so that they won't get hurt by ASL.

That's basically the main point of what he said.

Hopefully I am right? Anyone want to correct those?

If no one has brought up a transcript for you in a couple of days, I will be happy to try make one for you. Hopefully someone will because their English might be better than mine.

I believe in equal access so.
