You have a good point but with pills, I forget the name, it chemically altered the pigments of our skin to african america-like. I saw the documentary about it and it was fascinating how cops and public services reacted differently to that person who had experimented on himself. He evidently...

rockdrummer, last night I used the google search to delve into the 'audism' subject and there were a few inconsistent definitions of what it means and what it stands for. Noticeably, none of the dictionaries including Oxford English published the definition of 'audism'. Intriguingly, there is a...

That's a good question! I'd like to know too.

O.K., I think I got it. If I were to make a point or subject about a hearing impaired person who never had socialized with "deafies" or refuse to accept ASL as their fundamental language, I'm encouraged to characterize that person as a "deaf"? If another hearing impaired person who had...

Oh. I'm decidedly confused but I'd like to contemplate to see if I get it right. Or not. You were saying that a hearing impaired person is involved in Deaf culture, Deaf community, odds and ends would be considered as Deaf. Meanwhile, another hearing impaired person is not involved in any part...

That and, Reba, does it mean the children of Adam and Eve are the founders of the conceptual "sin" of incest?

Ha ha ha, alright!

neecy, not a long time ago, a few of my friends were vegetarians and tried to convince me to be on the vegetarian diet. I, of course, resisted but allowed them to twist my arms to read a controversial book, Fast Food Nation. It opened my eyes about meat and the fast food industry. Indubitably...

After reading many posts in various threads, one perplexing thing I have noticed and it aroused my curiosity. What's the difference between Deaf and deaf?

Ohhh, I got it. VamPyroX and GraysonPeddie, thanks for being so helpful! Nice, you got a good deal! Yes but my new TV sure ate my pockets. :(

It's Mitsubishi WD-52528. Yes, I checked and it comes with Closed Caption! Although, I wonder was there any difference between analog and digital caption?

The audism topic was fascinating. What's more surprising for me there is such thing as deaf against deaf. Well, I shouldn't be surprised about it given the fact that discrimination is a common problem among various races, ages and cultures.

Many thanks for the information and links!

Okay, thanks. I'll check it out as soon as I can find the manual. Not a long time ago, it ran off on its own to hide from me! ;)

Roadrunner, I'll keep that in mind. Thanks!

Cool! It comes with TV? I presume the manual would have some technical information in it? Momoftwo, nice poem!

Ha ha, I don't think so!

What's a "OME"? And oh yes, I do know what you mean. Ugh.

That's alright and I don't mind. Please do continue 'offtopicing'. From these posts, I learned more about deaf culture. Many thanks for being so helpful. Appreciate it a lot. Aside from that, I made a typo in my previous post and according to this response, I couldn't edit to correct it. Here's...

That does sound intriguing but what's a "captions"? Where can I get that?
