I don't start up conversations with total strangers if I don't have to. FJ, I think someone already said that we don't push to understand all the time because it gets tiring having to question someone repeatedly over and over again what they said. Not to mention, a lot of hearing people don't...

I haven't seen any information about captioning on it so far on Captionfish. I'm sure it will though, since it's focusing on a deaf person. I'm sure Hamill will make sure there will be captions for his movie. You can check for news on it on Facebook or the movie website. I can't wait to see it. :)

Wirelessly posted I believe Shel is referring to oral schools who want their students to be implanted.

That's pretty good, you did well! I like it! :D

I like cats, but I LOVE dogs. Cats are just so private and aren't as close to you as dogs are. Dogs are more entertaining too, I think. :)

Oooh, okay, that makes sense. I know they have ASL remedial classes too, right?

That's awesome news, thanks! That's something I wanted to hear. I was curious because I'm considering transferring to Gally for undergrad, but I'm worried that if my ASL sucks, that my presentations, discussion, etc. will be below everyone else's. I was just curious about how English factored...

Wirelessly posted I'm not sure if some of you misinterpreted my other question about papers! Thanks Shel for her info, and the input from the RIT student. My other question I basically meant, how do they assign papers knowing that some deafies do not have exceptional English skills...

Wirelessly posted Interesting, Shel. I was wondering, since I know some Deaf are not totally fluent in English and it's grammar. I wondered how papers and such were worked out? How is all of that graded? I assumed presentations would be done in ASL, since that would be pretty weird if it was...

Wirelessly posted Inception. It was CRAZY!

Wirelessly posted That is horrible. Why would you leave such young children at home alone? I noticed they have an unusual last name. Perhaps they were of a different culture or something where that is acceptable? My goodness, there's really no excuse for that.

Wirelessly posted You might want to do more research. I mentioned earlier that I had to write about this topic once, and there are differences in the brain makeups of straight people and GLBTQ. You can't 'prove' that they are gay or whatever per se, but you can show likelihood.

Wirelessly posted You have no right to say that about anyone. That was taking it way too far. There is no messed up race of people, but there are certainly messed up ways of thinking. Kind of like the way you just collectively insulted the GLBT community, along with their friends and family.

Wirelessly posted To the person who asked: I believe there isn't hard evidence yet as to how to determine if one is straight or gay, but there are correlations. It all has to do with components of the brain and its chemistry. I can't remember the specifics, but I have notes on it from a...

Wirelessly posted Was I the only one who never purposely hid their HAs when they were little?! I didn't hate them or anything, I thought they were so normal for the longest time!

Wirelessly posted This might be a weird question, but I just thought of it. Do you have to write papers at Gally or do you do video essays in ASL? This question might even apply to a deaf school in general. What is the homework (and all other work) like in terms of writing or signing?

I don't dislike them either. I just personally don't want one, just like WeeBeastie doesn't feel like it's necessary for her child. I don't feel like I need it either. I don't care what other people choose, so long as they are educated in all of their options in regards to if they want a CI...

Oh my gosh! This times 100000! :laugh2::laugh2::laugh2:

This thread=:giggle: Look. Don't worry so much. Why would you want a girl who is rich? It doesn't matter how much money the person you love has. I'm certainly not rich, but it's better that I'm happy and preparing for my future than being rich, right? I could understand if you want a girl...

I'm in a state college. My VR won't pay for it because my parents don't economically qualify for it, even though they don't make a lot of money. Plus I'm considered dependent on them until I'm 24, according to their rules. I read somewhere else it cost $10k a year to go to Gally, but I might...
