Hehehehe. I did that once or twice, back when I was attending my first course in Computer Programming. I used an FM System at that time (and not an interpreter though looking back I wish I had). There were a few times I had to run to the bathroom down the hall... and still heard the lecture...

Yes. Have been to Italy and England and a stopover in...either Belgium or Netherlands on the way to Italy- I can't remember anymore. (Canada doesn't count- bordering country and all). The Person Next Reading this... What is the furthest destination you've been to? (Land of Confusion & State...

Agree with AlleyCat.... Am also prelingually deaf... many years of speech therapy from about age 2 to 12 (stopped after 5th grade actually...6th grade was just... I guess a required part of my education plan-long before IDEA, IEP etc). I have no idea if I have a deaf accent but suspect I do if...

Ahh.. so.. one must provide suggestions along with their opinions every time? I think that's all it is with many people's posts on "They should do X, Y and Z"- it's their opinion. I see the same with other topics- like coding practices or ahh my favorite "the proper way to code this or that"...

Sort of yes, "easy" enough to scan pics from the all in one printer/scanner from the LED panel and tell it to send to my PC. It's just a pain in the ass to do for my own reasons.
