cool! What is the name of the plug-in? If I-pod would make a closed caption thing for songs they sure could make a lot more money...

Is there a way to play captions of music on your computer? Also it would be cool is it was in real time with the song? Anyone know of any way this can be done? Thanks

I've never heard of a middle ear implant before, so I did a little research and visited Envoy's website at http://www.envoymedical.com/index.htm I gotta say the idea they are presenting seems revolutionary and pretty interesting. Sounds like a way to have internal hearing aid so you don't have...

A 100,000 people did not die do to the hurricine..., last I checked the toll was around 120 people and will prob. increase some as they find bodies.

Thanks for your advice, I appreciate it.

I climb a bit myself.. For the last year I've been attending the local climbing gym on average 3 to 4 days a week and before that I climbed on and off for around two years. I do enjoy it a lot and have recently started bouldering outdoors a little bit. The trip sounds cool but I might not...

I've wanted to improve my lipreading skills for some time now... Do any of you have any suggestions?

Yeah, but a community must reside in a certain area, deaf people are widespread... Someone that knows deaf culture should back me up here...

There definitely is a deaf culture, eventhough deaf people are not a completely seperate society having their own religion, food, or country or whatever... Deaf people are the only people of this world that have a seperate language within a language. They are a group of people, maybe not very...

I am getting a laptop soon. I am confused by all the options though. Currently I am planning on getting the 12" powerbook by apple. I looked at dell and compared the features. Overall Apple seems to be the more complete package and the cost is about the same. I couldn't understand Toshibas...

You can do genetic selection on embryos...? Do you have any links where I could find more information on this?....

I might be able to give an educated guess. Was the mother or the father deaf from birth? When you say genetics, do they know what gene the mutation is in? Without knowing any information I think that it is a 50 50 chance that you and your boyfriend could be carriers for deafness. The...

I estimate there is around 6.5 million people in the world today that were born with hearing loss.

This number is the number of people BORN with hearing loss. Thanks for Toonices for telling me about that website, I will check it out!

Deaf and Hoh population of United States I figured out that there is around 300,000 thousand deaf and hoh people that live in United States. So we are not that small! Too bad so many deaf and hoh people don't realize how many of us they are...

Hmm, yeah the deaf world isn't that big, but we aren't THAT small either... I am hoh and I never really learned sign that well growing up so I am working on it now. I thought it would be cool and very helpful to have movies in sign with closed caption, that way I could pick up signs by...

Why aren't there any movies out that people sign in to communicate?? Doesn't seem fair that all the movies are in spoken english, maybe we need to start Deaf Hollywood...

My dog ate my heaging aids twice... :ugh: I reccomend the dry store if your climate gets really humid, otherwise I don't think it's necessary. It is good to have in emergency situations where the aid does get wet. For example when your friend push u in the swimming pool when you have your...

Hi, welcome! If it was me I would try and find other deaf people near by that are active in the deaf community. You could maybe find some people through your audiologist or if there is a college nearby that has ASL classes. Those instructors prob. would know a great deal about things that are...
