-- deaf people under hypnotism
Michael C. Anthony, not deaf, is a hypnotist. Many
people say he is the best in the world. He was recently
interviewed by a reporter, and was asked what was his
biggest challenge. He said he gave a performance at RIT.
Watching him perform was a group of six deaf students.
They joined a group of 30 hearing students that
volunteered to be hypnotized. Was it successful?
He told the deaf group to just watch the interpreter,
and all of them were hpynotized! Said Anthony:
"I was as amazed as anyone else!".

-- a restaurant chain discriminates against deaf-blind
Chipotle is in a lot of trouble because of many cases
of E. coli poisonings. And it was just learned that
Chipotle, in Los Angeles, refused to serve a
deaf-blind man! This patron said the manager told
him "too bad and please get out of here."
-- NFL, PepsiCo and CBS failed us at the Super Bowl
Through the efforts of NFL, PepsiCo and CBS, Marlee
Matlin was asked to sign-sing the National Anthem
along with Lady Gaga. Take a look at this cartoon
drawing:

Could we see her in the drawing?
Very sad that NFL, PepsiCo and CBS "pushed" Marlee to
a far corner where we cannot see her at all!
