    Success for deaf community

    Probably a good choice. Just remember, The AD is a great place to share experiences on pertinent topics but it does not mean a violation of confidentiality will occur just to satisfy ones curiosity. Sharing only basic information doesn't minimize the comments validity or topics discussion and...

    Universal access

    Agreed. I have committed the error twice in the last week and thank goodness Flip caught it and did a quick typed translation. For our DB members, just know these slip ups have not been intentional. If I were SSPing for you I would have signed it tactile. Sometimes we are all just human and...

    Wa. State Has 1st Death Under State's Assisted Suicide Law

    This is certainly one of those controversial topics. I struggle with how I feel about it, but admit that should I be in that situation I would want the option.

    Success for deaf community

    Exactly. Thank You. I do not like your insinuation rockdrummer, I cannot/will not break a confidence to satisfy your curiosity. I am sure since you do not know them you would still call me a liar. Your problem, not mine.

    Success for deaf community

    Let me take these one at a time: 1. No, as that would be breaking confidences, if they wish to tell their own stories they can 2. Yes 3. I believe it is but many will accomodate an employer to keep an otherwise good job/position Agreed Flip. Any organization that forces Oral Only or...

    Americans still texting while driving despite bans

    :hmm: According to Keith Wann, "Deaf drive with their knees so they can sign" so I guess Deaf texting is as safe as their driving :giggle: That was meant to be funny, not insulting, BTW

    Does it annoy you when you cannot pronouce something?

    Wow, that is tough and embarassing for hearing and D/deaf alike. I usually give it a try.

    AGBell Body Snatchers

    No, it isn't the 1800's but AGB was wrong then and they are still wrong today, they just stubbornly refuse to acknowlege the truth of TC and give up their goal of complete annihilation of D/deaf culture and ASL. I have attempted to speak to AGB before, as have many others at AD, I'm sure...

    AGBell Body Snatchers

    loml, that is AGB's aim, to obliterate any form of communication but oral and to deny that deafness exists. I thought that was fairly straight forward since the 1800's. Darn it, sorry again Hear Again, my bad. and thanks for translation again Flip. I thought so too.

    Debate over PSE/ASL...

    Sorry Hear Again, I forget that the devices do not pick up video and translate it for DB like the written posts. That was jillios response in re: to Jiro's talking parrot picture not my post, just fyi. Thanks for the translation Flip. I got a little more out of it though. I was looking at...

    AGBell Body Snatchers

    The video is a comment on AGB and the assumption that all people who are deaf are broken and need fixed and if not fixed then to be relocated away from the 'normal' people. They used the 'Body Snatchers' as a way to illustrate it. Lord NO! I didn't posted that thinking or saying it was...

    I was actually denied an interpreter at a hospital

    I'm glad you are moving forward with the complaint Jenny. Can you put something in a local paper or local D/deaf news that would ask for others who have received this mistreatment to come forward? A group of people are not as easy to dismiss or cover up than a single person.

    Spend wayyy too much time on AD

    What is too much time? :giggle: Actually, I feel that this forum and maybe one other I visit keeps we fairly well informed and grounded :) Ok, I admit it, If I don't check in at least once a day I feel like I am missing out --- Addicted!
