    I Hate This. Do Ci Users Have This Same Issue?

    Didn't have the issue with hearing aids, but definitely do with CI's. As I explain it, with hearing aids you can still hear. I cannot hear with CI, I can only listen. In communications and audiology its called passive listening and active listening. Passive listening means you don't have to...

    Interpreter Stabbed, Needs Help, Please Contribute...

    yeah, he is really fun guy, I chatted with him the first year they had the interprefurs and it was a lot of fun. The terps really didn't know what to expect but they really had a blast working the event. I also got my local Furry con here in Reno https://www.biggestlittlefurcon.org/ to...

    VRS & Glide

    It depends where you are located as far as which VRS is most popular. Sorenson is probably the biggest, ZVRS, Hamilton, Purple would be the others. I suggest you call them in an official manner as a Glide rep and they will put you in touch with the correct tech people.

    Another Mall shooting at CHARLOTTE, N.C

    It wasn't, because a bad guy with a gun was stopped by a good guy with a gun! Gun law reforms would not stop this from happening, the guy already ignored existing laws such as atempt murder and assault with a deadly weapon. Only thing gun laws would have done is disarmed the person who...

    Adobe Flash is dead!!!

    The majority of the world and flash users are non geeks. It would take at least a decade for flash to disappear from most computers and embedded systems would be my guess. T there is still a lot of stuff running embedded Windows CE

    Does anyone else find these type of threads a bit weird? Like saying I love cripples, the blind, amputees, or midgets etc. and want to fit in with their community and meet them?

    CIs and Music

    There is a local Cochlear meet next month. I will grill the rep on music perception and why AB seems so superior.

    CIs and Music

    Maybe their first implant was Cochlear and they were only told that with second implant. Very few surgeons seem to favor putting a different brand implant on each side

    CIs and Music

    Seems the current concensus from CI uses here is that AB would be the better choice for music. 11 years ago when I got mine. This knowledge was not known in fact AB was dealing with FDA banning them from selling their device due to Meningitis concerns. 3 years later I got second implant was...

    How powerful are your hearing aids/CIs

    Read the title of the thread. That's what I responded to. So post in the appropriate thread if you want to discuss brand differences. I also never claimed there was no difference between brands. Let's not detail the OP's thread.

    The Cochlear Implant Isn't Always What You Think It Is

    I agree with your opinion. Matches my own experience and what I have seen as a DHH teacher and the many parents I have talked with. Shared it on my FB too

    I'm afraid deaf education is falling apart

    Agree with the OP. Check out http://www.deafhoodfoundation.org/Deafhood/Home.html One of the newer issues now is inappropriate placement of students with CI because the schools and "professionals" give the devices too much credit for what they actually accomplish.

    How powerful are your hearing aids/CIs

    I wish you would stop attacking me and sating things about my posts that are not true. No where did I try to justify any CI at all. (Show me where I did I was pointing out 2 facts to answer the OP's question. First that CI is not limited in how much volume it can produce from a practical...

    Sorenson vs Purple vs ZVRS?

    Sorenson has one number that runs and is used on all your devices. Prob had the largest number of interpreters. You can have multiple mobile providers but need to pick one for home. Z5 max is junk. Completely locked down computer with poor user interface. Purple screwed me out of...
