    color blind

    I'm red/green colorblind and strongly feel it should be considered a formal disability. Being colorblind is more limiting in my life than being Deaf or having Autism. It would also be what I would cure first or the only thing I would cure if I had a choice.

    Subway Jared Fogle to guilty on child porn charges

    Driver changes tire in middle of I-95

    Just loaded Ubuntu Linux on my old laptop. There is a lot of talk about future "pay to.play" with Windows future. Also the fact that they can access all your private files and data seems pretty Owellian to me

    Is it worth to cut bone to choose AB over Med-el?

    Honestly with your claimed success and short surgery. You are the CI poster child. My first surgery was almost 5 hrs, 3 for the second one. Finally after 11 years I have implants I can hear fairly well in quiet. But still suck in noise. Anyone reading your experience needs to realize that...
