You're getting really stuck on the "miracle of biblical proportion" aren't you. *houchi adds that phrase to repertoire or copy/paste comments* I already broke that sentence down for you. If you didn't understand then that the "fact" was that it was invented at all and not that it was "a miracle...

On a scale of 1 to 10 just how freaking high are you? 13? Is English that hard for you? I'm sure you think you're being clever Trevor. No, fail.

Exactly. Not to mention completely unnecessary. Like everyone immediately forgets what he wrote after they've read it. Everyone knows what he's said. Brief summary....... I'm not antiCi, I'm just against CI. I have no problems with the tech, I just don't want anyone to have it. I'm not...

No you're not back to it, you're just quoting it again, going over the same parts you've already "critiqued" and STILL are leaving out that the National Association of Deaf amended their official stance on cochlear implants and the interview with provost of Gaulladet who coincidentally has a...

It's not a fact that cochlear implants were invented. Interesting. Well that changes everything!!!

I'm going to humor you for a moment then I gotta go. Did I read the article?? Well, I referred to things in the article that you failed to mention soooo maybe? Maybe I did. I'll let you take a moment to think about that. As Steve Parton, the father of one of the first children to receive an...

:rofl::rofl:

I already stated my opinion on your comments. That they're semantic spin, not sure if you do it on purpose or genuinely don't understand what you've read but whatever, you do spin things to support your arguments. And btw you didn't in fact try to imply, no you straight out claimed, that the...

What I find most interesting about your post, besides the semantic spins to support your view, is the parts of the article you DIDN'T comment about. The most interesting part of your posts are your omissions. You're trying to give the impression that the majority of Deaf people in Deaf culture...

Hmmm also make sure your cable (from the headpiece to the processor) is pushed in ALL the way. Or even try a different one?

Bleeding Purist is probably the most helpful member with the technical stuff. He'd have a lot more insight than I would. Not sure how often he pops I'm here anymore, but I'll send him a message to have look see.

It possibly could be your magnet. Do you have really thick hair? What's your hearing history. I think I was in a rush and I'd push myself with the volume increases. I think I may have had it on the 3rd program regularly by the end of the first week. If you've made it to the max volume program...

I don't remember any cutting in and out but things sounding strange? Oh yeah. They start you off with VERY little volume, stimulation. Have been you using the other programs with increased volume? You're only a week out, things change dramatically the first 2 months, mine did anyway. What brand...

No body has said that implanted children should be denied sign. No body. Nobody has denied that it happens. But when we point out that it doesn't always happen you brush it under the rug. That is unfortunate, because it's progress and what you should be advocating if you want to get anywhere...

I didn't get vertigo or any more ringing than I already had Tinnitus was something that I already dealt with. More than likely everything will go great. You were hearing before, we're the best candidates for CI. In 5 days it will be my hearaversary, one year since activation. Lots and lots of...

Yes you most certainly have. I don't have to quote you, everybody has already read your posts. If you're not trying to imply that an idea isn't held by the culture at large, then change your language. When you use "we" "us" "our children" you're indicating group think. If it's something that YOU...

This one made my eyebrows lift at first. The first post on there is my post that shared of Cobi Sewell's vblog on his feeling of CI. Makes sense that it would be though, because it's just a search of the word cochlear implant. So of course "my" search results would my post first. Someone else...

This isn't an either or solution to A problem. Some of these posters should really do a simple google search of what this surgery is. Knee jerk reactions abound. A hearing aid wouldn't be a "treatment" for his glue ear or any other medical issues, it just addresses the hearing loss. You've two...

You're missing my point hoichi. I'm pointing out the things you do that are going to make you not heard. Your tactics are exactly why you would be ignored. When you're ignored you gain nothing. You're also missing the point of the golden window, which is the subject of the thread. The only...

Yes Hoichi I was talking to you. You knew I was talking to you ;) See, you can figure it out without a quote :P I know you've never stated that there aren't any successes, that's why I didn't say you did. I'm just saying you have to acknowledge that they exist. For every kid that is implanted...
