    Dont get drunk in India...well not in the streets...

    Did you know that there's something called a dictionary? India just launched a satellite to Mars while you sat there with your sandwich. Let me tell you something: I despise bigoted implications more than anything. The above is a case in point.

    Dont get drunk in India...well not in the streets...

    You're awfully rude. Of course there are traffic lights in India! Looking at one incident and labeling the entire race as "fcuked up" and "nasty" is quite ignorant and myopic, not to mention impudent. This event is indeed barbarous, and I'm rather repulsed that no one did anything. However, you...

    Gallaudet Graduate Student - Cochlear Implant Controversy Presentation

    If you do not believe me, perhaps you will believe these peer-reviewed, published papers and experiments. See this, this, this, this, this, et al. Differential perception of the same signal may be due to the fact that cognitive learning changes with age.

    Gallaudet Graduate Student - Cochlear Implant Controversy Presentation

    Hi! I have read many mixed reviews about CIs and HAs, and I understand how frustrating it must all be. The actual integration of CN VIII (vestibulocochlear) is something we don't fully understand yet. Modern CIs reproduce the signal that hearing people perceive as sound, but what happens with...

    Gallaudet Graduate Student - Cochlear Implant Controversy Presentation

    Hi there. That's a tough question and a highly subjective one. Being a hearing person, I don't know how much my opinion will matter, but being part of the medical community, I can tell you that a lot of people find deafness a medical problem. In general, the medical community does not make any...

    Truth or myth

    My answer: truth. Being a seller myself, I know that the holidays result in greater demand, and a rise in demand leads to increased prices (supply and demand). Truth or myth: Apple has run out of ideas for their iPhones and iPads.

    Friendship?

    High levels of stress, lack of sleep, internal distractions, etc are more far likely causes than aural deterioration at our age. More than likely, you are doing fine. And yes, it is a short quiz that attempts to quantitatively determine one's social anxiety levels. I will PM you my Skype info...

    Emergency Situations

    Several of them already exist. If you can get around the patent issue, the app would be nice, since the ones that exist are somewhat expensive.

    Friendship?

    Haha, thank you. I think that I may have some degree of Social Anxiety as well. Have you taken the Liebowitz SA test? I am not hard of hearing; I have a fully functional auditory system as far as I am aware. I joined AD primarily due to research interests and fascination with Deaf culture...

    Friendship?

    I've taken a semester of sign language at my university; I know enough for basic communication. I don't have anyone to sign with so it's hard to remember things. FYI, I have aspergers syndrome, but I did not find out until recently because I was pretty advanced for my age. I became a seasoned...

    Friendship?

    Hi, welcome to AD. I understand how you feel--I'm also a college student, but majoring in biology and going into medical research. I'm currently part of a research lab trying to figure out some things. I'm a hearing person but Deaf culture is indeed fascinating!
