911 is an all access service. As long as you have a phone, 911 will work. You don't have to have voice b/c in the USA federal law requires that all cellphone towers accept a 911 call from all phones (activated or not). As long as your phone is compatible with the local tower, the tower is...

I agree. I was bullied a lot in school. I'm not deaf, but bullying is bullying. The person makes fun of a part of you, that you have no control over. It's bullying and you shouldn't have to take it.

Honestly, if the kid was going to get the food, she should've been made to eat it. Sorry if this sounds tough but parents should teach their kids not to waste food. If their kids do waste food the kid should have to eat it. I've heard numerous parents say this and I think that this mom is just...

The article said it was still good.

The 75% is something my friend told me (doubt it's true). Also, I don't really believe they're meaningless per se but I do believe that people rely on them way too much. That's where our judgmental attitude comes from. We as people rarely try to include anomalies because we're so busy worrying...

I got 80

Thanks RacherBunny :-) I am not so good with my Esperanto either LOL or I would reply in it. I'm just now becoming fluent in my German and I still don't understand what most people are saying. I'll try the site resources then. :-)

LOL, no car.

LOL :-) I'm totally stealing that one :-)

I live in the country so I'm unaware of any local deaf social events.

Sorry guys if this is annoying. I didn't know if this fit in the Students thread. I'm not a student (anymore) but I was interested in learning ASL. Would anyone mind helping me over Skype? I'm a 23 year old male who lives in the USA. I am an amateur radio operator, I speak 3 languages (English...

Hi Hey guys. I know you probably get this a lot and don't want to sound like a sounding drum and keep reiterating what everyone else has already asked. But I am very interested in learning sign language (If possible: with someone my own age) I'm 22. I've read a couple of books, but never have...
