The irony is that AG Bell's last word is 'no' in sign language.

Heh! Heh! A Clarke graduate signing on a Pepsi commercial. Does AG Bell know of this???

One more thing..... Why didn't AG Bell made sure that he didn't have any children as diabetes run in his family (AG and his father both had diabetes)???? Diabetes is sure not a sign of well-born (eugenic). Another irony to think about.

Really? Wow, then he should have been sterilized in the first place! Diabetes can cause death and illness whereas Deafness doesn't cause death or illness! How ironic, indeed!

Maybe that's what promted AGBad to write that letter cuz it pissed them off to see that a CLarke graduate is using ASL not spoken speech.

No, I won't take that in consideration! I am definitely communicating in my native sign language, thank you, mister or whatever.

JClarke, I didn't mention and I wasn't even thinking about you when I mentioned the Clarke school. Sorry if other guys are teasing you for that.

One neat sign we have for the Clarke School.... hold up the "C" handshape (in ASL not in AUSLAN, mind you!) with the left hand and make a "B" handshape with the right hand. Now hold the right hand horizionally inside the "C" and move it up and down as if it is wide-open mouth with a flapping tongue. You know, Clarke school is pro-oral. Yeah, I think we are making fun of that school. :wink:

No worries, I was just messing with the other AD'ers about my last name, relating to the Clarke School in the U.S
