-- deaf not allowed to have a bank account
Deaf people have their own bank accounts. Are we lucky?
In some African nations - Kenya, Somalia and Uganda,
deaf people are not permitted to have bank accounts!
There may be other African nations on the list.
-- deaf confused in future Sioux Falls?
Will a visiting deaf person be confused in Sioux Falls,
South Dakota of the future? Half of the old South Dakota
School for the Deaf campus became the Communications
Services for the Deaf CSD). Then CSD moved to Austin,
Texas. A developer now wants to use the former SDSD/CSD
land for a retail center with townhouses, apartments,
office space, coffee shop, sub shop, fitness center and
other stores.
-- best way for deaf to watch movies
A deaf man, that loves watching movies, said that he prefers
movies with subtitles than moves with captions. Why? Foreign
movies have subtitles, and stories are less violent. Hollywood
movies are often violent. And wearing the captioning glasses to
watch the Hollywood movies will "squeeze" his head! Yes, it
all depends on the city. Some cities do not have foreign movie
theaters.
