I've actually learned a lot in the thread I started:

AllDeaf.com > Deaf Community > Our World, Our Culture Deaf or HoH?

There are even misconceptions within the deaf community! SneakerNet was actually whapped upside the head because he used the phone after identifying himself as deaf. (He's deaf, but can hear with hearing aids.) It would be helpful for others to know that deaf has varying levels. Some cannot be helped with hearing aids or CIs, some do not feel the need explore these options at all.
