Hello. The publisher, Matthew Moore, plans to resurrect Deaf Life. He remarked about this on his website. Silent News, DeafNation, NewsWaves, etc. all fell by the wayside, as far as I know. I'll be happily wrong if any of these magazines are still publishing and are still going strong...

Hello. I work as a Community Advocate for a local Deaf human services organization. I meet with Deaf people daily and it's great. Enjoy.

Dude- Dell computers are nice. I myself got a Compaq Presario notebook computer. It's pretty nice but it isn't a top-notch system. Macintosh PowerBooks are very nice and if I had a lot of disposable income, I'll be getting the 17" PowerBook model. :) Enjoy.

Hello. Back in high school, I wasn't that athletic. I did join the football team for one year and I was a substitute, collecting wood splinters on the bench. :) It was fun, though. Now, I'm running just 1/2 a mile a day, trying to lose some weight. So far, my weight hasn't budged a little...

Hello. The closest superhero I can think of is 'Jericho' of the Teen Titans in the DC Universe. George Perez, an artist, introduced this character and he used sign language. This character could hear but wasn't able to talk. Does using sign language count? :) Enjoy.

Ahem. Robert Weitbrecht, a Deaf man, invented the TTY mechanism back in the 1950's with his acoustic coupler invention. So, feel free to use your TDD. :) Enjoy.

Hello. Being a Deaf militant sounds pretty extreme. It sounds like a person is so intensely focused on his status as a Deaf person and does not even consider other viewpoints or realities. I myself prefer to think of myself as an 'educator'. A lot of people have little understanding of...

Hello. From reading this thread, I'm glad I got out of the comic biz long time ago. I guess I've got a life. :) Now, if eBay was easy to deal with, I'd be unloading my comic book collection... Enjoy.

Hello. Thank you for the informative article. I hope that messaging services and pagers will continue for a long time as the Deaf community needs such services. Oftentimes, I have seen Deaf persons having their messaging services cancelled and 1/2 year contracts rescinded with Wyndtell...

Hello. I hope I understood you correctly. Commodore Business Machines went out of business and went bankrupt in 1994. That's why you don't see Commodore computers in North America. There are still some Commodore businesses in Europe, selling stuff like telephones, PC clones, etc. Enjoy.

Hello. I'm pretty eclectic when it comes to music. My CD collection is like 4-5 CD's in total. :) Here's a sampling of songs I like: Shout, by Tears For Fears Heads Over Heels, by Tears For Fears We Didn't Start the Fire, by Billy Joel Complicated, by Avril Lavigne Without Me, by...

Hello. I'm partial to old skool RPG's. Some of my favorites include: Bards Tale Triology (I, II & III) Might & Magic series Eye of Beholder III Pool of Radiance and other SSI's TSR adaptions such as Curse of the Azure Bonds, etc. I did like playing those old text adventures from...

Hello. I originally with SuSE LINUX. It was pretty nice, but it was hard to use initially and I later abandoned my LINUX experiment. Thankfully, I gave it a second chance and went with Red Hat Linux. I find myself more comfortable now in using it and becoming more familar with its...

Hello. If I have Deaf children, I'd send them to Md. School for the Deaf or KDES. These two schools are the best for elementary school education. I wouldn't consider any other school. After elementary school, then I'll leave it up to them to decide. Enjoy.

Hello, Javapride- First of all, it is best that you consult with your V.R. counselor. He/she can make or break your educational goals and you will eventually have to work out an educational/rehabilitation plan with them. Secondly, do keep in mind that oftentimes, students attend colleges...

Hello. I myself attended Gallaudet University. The best 4 1/2 years of my life. I naturally refer any bright Deaf student to explore the possibility of enrolling at Gallaudet. NTID/RIT is okay, I suppose. I've visited there a few times and I don't remember being that impressed. Being a...

Hello. I myself went to Fla. Sch. for the Deaf in St. Augustine, FL. It was a great experience for me! Enjoy.

Hello. My first computer is the Commodore 64. I still use it today, using a Commodore 128d. Yes, I know I have no life and cling to old computers... Check out my Commodore collection at: http://www.geocities.com/eyethian2000/commodorecollection.html Enjoy!
