Hey, I'm curious too

[dereksbicycles]

In college, I took introduction to special education class. One day, the teacher had someone who was blind speak to class. Someone in audience asked, how does it work if you took a cab. Your fare is $12. You give a $20 bill. How do you know you're getting the right change back(1 $5 and 3 $1 bill).????

That made me curious too and I wanted to know the same answer.

I'm sure a lot of ASL students are curious and I can understand that. I'm happy to answer some questions.

I don't mind telling people that my favorite candy is Musketeer. I just don't understand why an ASL student would need to ask that question, though.

According to Wikipedia, they might not be able to tell. Canadian money has tactile dots to assist. Neither the £5 nor £10 notes in my wallet have anything.

(NB: not my view, but what the interview writer might have been thinking) It's a fun question that doesn't relate to deafness and makes it more fun for the interviewee!

hmmm I have a question. How do you know if you're hungry? I mean hearing people can hear their stomach is growling but deaf people can't hear it so how do they know if they're hungry?

I'll admit that I didn't really pay attention to that one. I wish I paid more attention to that question now that I'm 34. I was 20 back then.

As for the hunger one, I can feel it the same as with just many other stuffs.

One reason might be because the teacher knows the candy bar will have to be spelled out and that helps with fingerspelling.

There is a little device you can buy that reads paper money and tells you what it is these days. Many fold each type of bill in a different way so they can distinguish it quicker.
