    Do you feel that HA or CI prevent you from getting jobs?

    Honestly - I have been very fortunate.. I have worked for Shell Oil Company, IBM Corporation, NASA, and now I work for a small hospital. And none of those really had detered me because of my hearing loss. IBM was the BEST company in regards to disability. But in general, the jobs I am...

    Aye - I just need something better than what I am using analog - so I can perform my everyday function. With CI it seems like it can do everything a person would want. I have heard raves from people from DEAF families who says it is GREAT. Then again, I am looking for something temporary...

    What has a CI allowed you to do that before you couldn't

    Haha! Yea I know it is probably much more tolerant now than it was back then. I mean geez I could remember the "WARS" of the CI issues during my Gallaudet days. But you know the technology back then (in the 90's) was not as advanced as they are now. And now they are starting to become more...

    Get to know you

    They ask for ID everywhere because of what happened at Gallaudet (the murders) My brother was teh guy who found the body. So they do it for a reason, plus alot of people would go into Gallaudet and SLEEP in the dorms when they weren't students. They were trying to STOP the abuse! Sheesh!

    Sorenson's position on FCC

    I go based on quality based on the blurriness... I get blurriness with my DLINK but I dont get it with my VP-100. I use it both at home and at work. That is how I based the quality.

    A letter...

    Ya know it is NOT just CI people but people who have hearing aids too BTE hearing aids. So it is NOT just limited to ONE area. I have met parents who have their kids with hearing aids and have the same expectations. And I'm sorry I have to say one thing, CI does NOT CURE deafness they are...
