DeafDigest - 17 August 2021

DeafDigest Mid-Week edition - August 17, 2021 -- a deaf bus driver Do we have bus drivers (of city buses) that are deaf? There is one in Japan. What about USA?   -- "one of best surgeons" is deaf Dr. Wilder has been described as the best surgeon according to a TV writer/producer. It was in reference to the New Amsterdam TV series about medical dramas in a hospital. This fictional Dr. Wilder is being played by Sandra Mae Frank, a veteran deaf actress. The drama is that Dr Wilder refuses to join the hospital staff, not wanting to work with a person she dislikes. Just have to watch that program to follow the action and the drama.   -- difference between Bezos/Musk and Morgan/Vanderbilt Famous inventor Thomas Edison was deaf. He needed funding to support his work with new inventions. He got the funding from J.P. Morgan and the Vanderbilt family. If we had a great deaf inventor today, would Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk fund him? Probably not since they are only more interested in funding their own "stunts" in space.   Deaf jobs - latest update http://deafdigest.com/category/jobs/ 08/15/21 Blue and Gold editions & sub options at: http://deafdigest.com/newsletters/
