I went to the gay pride parade in NYC with my sisters in 2009. Was a lot of fun :)

Hi, welcome. Aslpro.com is a pretty good website too. :)

Hello :)

Haha, thanks Yoda... And yep I know :P

Not true. I'd rather retire in a place with warm weather and a stable economy where I know older people will be well cared for - even if that is in another country. The person below me loves Pokemon.

My heart goes out to those people in Colorado - the victims and their loved ones. I was shocked to hear about this upon waking up. It is a real tragedy. All these people wanted to do at the time was watch a cool superhero movie. The asshole is definitely going to get what he deserves. I also...

I'm still under my parents' plan - when my parents switched to Verizon back in like 2003-2005 there wasn't a deaf plan yet. I am grandfathered in under the unlimited data plan. However I really am not looking forward to the day that Verizon eventually gets rid of the grandfather clause for the...

That's what I've always thought as well.

Hi, welcome :)

This is exactly what I use. Love it. :)

I agree with him and everyone else who is saying to do both ASL/Speech therapy. However, my reasoning is the opposite. I was born profoundly deaf and raised with just the signing method. I wish my parents had actually decided to do both for me instead of just the signs. Don't get me wrong, I do...

That's one of the reasons I started wearing contacts at the age of 13... however it still happens to me occasionally, with my sun glasses though. Lol.

I don't agree with you on the danger level for a deaf person swimming alone. I think it's equally dangerous for anyone to swim alone - regardless of whether you can hear or not. I would be far more concerned about losing consciousness or exhaustion than not hearing something. I'm not 100% sure...

ASL is American Sign Language. Not sure why the person decided to ask you a random question instead of responding to your post though. :S

Definitely do introduce yourself. I'll let others speak for themselves, but personally it is very rare for me to encounter someone that does sign at all. I live in a rural area in PA where there are a LOT of ignorant people and rednecks around here. So it's always really nice to be able to sign...

Very interesting. I'll definitely have to try it out when it comes out.

That's what I thought you were trying to do here, improve what we have, but I wasn't 100% sure. Thanks for clarifying. I would try to help here, but I have zero knowledge on developing an app and I am not good at speaking either. Have you considered maybe applying to work with Google, Youtube...

Youtube CC uses 'transcribing' - converting speech to text. It'd be the same concept as your app in the sense that it's converting speech to text. Hence people are mentioning it here. However it is very inaccurate. For example, I tried watching a 'behind the scenes' video for an MMORPG I play...

I rarely talk... Refused to use my voice for a long time, maybe 7 or 8 years. Then I started taking up speech therapy again recently. I wanted to be better able to communicate with my hearing friends as well as increase my odds for a job. But now that I graduated, I am no longer surrounded by...

Hi, I'm a 22 years old deaf female, sup? :P
