Today we get to start manufacturing 70,000 fans of American Sign Language to be handed out at the Orange County Fair next month.

Our fans will be hotter than this summer!

You said signing was obsolete, Nesmuth.

Where does it say I said signing was obsolete? I only said there's no support for it here in OC. So we're providing the support.

Why should I be fan of ASL for? I don't see Hearing people would gather up to support their English Languages? Or Redneck languages, or Southern Languages? That's being so silly. By the way I am not fan of ASL.

Why on Earth is it silly? There are people who promote their own language. Perhaps you need to get out more and stop bragging about how much you hate ASL.

Hate? Why get so hostile? I never said that I hate ASL. I just said that I am not fan of ASL in this "thread." Everyone is entitled to their opinions. And I am using sign language as my first language and you're hearing. That makes my opinions even more credit than yours.

Thats why we're providing the 'support' thats lacking here on OC. Thats why weve been printing the fans of asl.

Sweetmind is advocating ASL. Nesmuth is saying she needs to get with it because people are using their voices instead now. So, he's basically saying that ASL is obsolete.

Probaly b/c it's a wealthy area, with tons of parents who only want their kids to speak!
I'm working on changing that perception, and perhaps in a few years, there'll be OC parents who are eager for their dhh kids to learn Sign. I think many of the parents have bought into the myth that Sign is beneath their kids.
