    Videos on CNN's website

    I also agree with Richard CNN's video's should be captioned. If a deaf person is watching a video on the comptuer they can't understand it unless its captioned. Margie Dir.of Communication Services OCDAC

    ASL student with question about culture

    I agree! You can also write about how the deaf and hard of hearing were treated along time ago. They though the handcapped, even the deaf were "Frecks". I'm Jewish, like Honeyshot,and I know what its like to be picked on. Good luck with your paper! Margie Dir. of Communication Services OCDAC
