-- a very scary deaf incident at a small town store
Batavia, NY is a small town of some 15,000 people. A
11-year old hearing girl was at a store where she
accidentally dropped some money. A deaf man saw it
and gestured to her about the dropped money. The
girl got very scared and thought the deaf man wanted
to kidnap her! Police was called and after some
questioning, knew that the hearing girl was making
it all up. The deaf man did not run away but waited
for the police to arrive to clear it all up.
-- another use of 3D printing
DeafDigest has mentioned 3D printing several times.
The latest one is a camera built by 3D printing.
It was built by Clint O'Connor, a retired engineer
with many patents, an engineering degree from MIT
and at one time, owner of his consulting firm. He
is deaf.
-- people in a London town happy because of a deaf person
For 20 years a town clock above a Central London (UK)
shop was broken. No one was around to fix it. A deaf
man was hired to get the clock fixed. It was not
an easy job, requiring two months of slow restoration,
taking out and fixing the broken and rusted parts.
The clock now works and everyone is happy.
