Amazing how many people are unaware of the Cochlear Implants. I'm surprised at that.

I recognize the background, it is the 16th street mall in downtown Denver.

i'm not surprised at all. There are only been aroung 150,000 implants done out of the 6 billion people. That is a tiny percentage.

(oh and yeah, he had an accent)

That is interesting but I am not surprised though. It still tiny compare to hearing world really.

Makes sense, most people I encounter have never heard of them. Even
one of my child's pediatricians was pretty fascinated by them, didn't know there was such a thing and researched them before our next visit.
