Yeah, that would be easier, wouldn't it? But, you see, in the instances that I use drive throughs, I have my baby in the car, and it's no fun getting her out of the carseat, carrying her in, waiting, ordering, waiting, and then getting her back in the seat while not spilling food. But, when I...

The sad thing is that this type of thinking is what is taught to most hearing children, I think. Having once been hearing, I know that the deaf community is often represented incorrectly to the hearing world. Often, I don't think it's so much a desire to be rude and just plain hurtful, but...

Yea! Subtitles! I love them. When no one else is watching, I just turn off the TV. I can not understand what they are saying to begin with, and you can't expect the actors to hold still for you to look at their mouths. CC makes it possible for me to enjoy TV.

I have every right to an opinion. I corrected your interpartion of what I said and I have every right to not want to debate. I did nothing wrong.

I just didn't understand what she meant Bottesini. I fail to see how it is your business.

Thank you for clarifying, Jillio. I just wasn't sure what you meant.

I meant to ask Jillio what she meant by 'his theroies' because I didn't know which she meant, so I couldn't very well have googled it.

Of course, I didn't mean they shouldn't have signs...just saying that some small children at probably embarassed to a degree.

I think it probably depends on the child. Some children wouldn't be too concerned, I don't think, especially if their parents had taught them to be proud of who they are. But, as with all children, some are more senestive. I think it probably does bother some.

*Sigh* Bott. I should have been more clear. I would not now or ever claim to suffer what they did. But I have suffered. And I still wouldn't have the people responsible for that killed. I'm not telling you what to believe, so please let's not debate about it. That's my own personal opinion, and...

I think Audist is a bad a word as Bast*rd in the deaf community. *Smiles* Anway, you said his theroies were proven wrong? Can you tell me more about that? I mean, which of his theroies...that deafness is a shameful thing, or that CI will completely wipe out deafness?

*Applaudes Dixie* Good job! Exactly right.

Wow. "It's interesting because it's a dying culture and it's kind of part of our past now." We're a dying culture, everyone...don't you feel distinquised? (I know, horrid spelling) Seriously, the balls of the man. We are still people, for goodness sake. I know he thinks hearing is better...

*Nodding* I see. Well, I still don't think that's right. If an adult, born deaf, wants to have two CI, I don't think there should be a rule againist it. CI works for deafteen, I know because she has one, and she wants two. I think that she should be allowed. Now, I'm saying she should be allowed...

I know that. Believe me. I've done a lot of research on the Holocaust, and some of my ancestors are believed to have died there (Roma gypsies, though, I'm not Jewish). But, I still believe that the death penalty is wrong regardless. And, yes, I have had horrible things happen to me personally...

But....what kind of sense does that make? I mean...just because you are an adult doesn't mean you wouldn't need billateral as much as a child, does it?

*Smiles* I just wanted to welcome you here and let you know that we do understand. As for your story...wow. I can idenify to a certain point. I started to realize I was having hearing problems when I was 19 as well, and, at 23, I am profoundly deaf in one ear and severe to profoundly deaf in the...

*Sighs* Is the world really so mad? How can this be? I do not know if this man is innocent or guilty, I don't really think there is any way for any one to be sure at this late date. But...the facts are damning. The man was idenified years ago, apparently, and the fact that he is obviously not as...

*Grins* Just a little. I will try to make them understand how important it is that they are honest. The people I would show them to are very loving, though, and I seriously doubt they would ever really trash anything I wrote even if it was obviously terrible. I don't even know how to begin, I...

I'm confuzzled. Why aren't they available? Has anyone told you why? I don't understand why they aren't available in the first place. *Hugs*
