    The Benefits of Captioning for Hearing People

    the captioning for the spanish shows is in spanish. Digital TV ("high-def") has selections in the controls to show the captioning in English when the audio is in spanish, but I have not found any channels where that works (yet?). But it is still a very big help. Because when I hear a...

    The Benefits of Captioning for Hearing People

    Because I moved to south east Florida, I have to learn some spanish. (Way too many spanish speakers refuse to learn English.) So I watch the Spanish version of Sesame Street (" Plaza Sesamo") and turn on the closed captioning. When the kids start singing a song about "adelante y atras" I...

    Observation by a hearing person...

    hmmm.. you know it just might be possible that the hearing guy is staring at you signing becuase he thinks you are a hottie, but has no idea how to break the ice. In college I rode a bus and many days also on the bus were two really hot women signing. One day I worked up the courage to say...

    got a question for hearing

    total silence is deafening Total silence is VERY un-nerving. This happens in two places for me. One was in a house I grew up in built in the 1850's. On a hot still summer day when no one else was home and there were no appliances on, the only sound was my own breathing and hearbeat. After...

    got a question for hearing

    x Gunshot ? Very much depends what type of firearm. Generally, rifles are quieter than handguns (when comparing the same cartridge). (The longer the barrel, the more that the gases have expanded before they begin escaping after the projectile has left the barrel.) A .22 caliber rifle is...
