[netrox]

those videos are HILARIOUS! It makes fun of Oralists and ASL Deafists by creating caricatures of them:

You have to know sign language to understand what the characters are saying. It just cracks me up major time!

I hate QuickTime so I cannot use your links Sigh....

Would be great if they have more options
rather than just QuickTime only...

RealTime or WindowsMedia would work for me.

That's really funny. I felt like the "oral" guy was screaming at me the whole time, or something. I do wish both of them had taken a little more care to include their whole signing space in the camera (especially when they "grew" the hands on the other guy) but otherwise...it's good to laugh at these things!

Thanks for the videos! They are funny!

Offtopic, but I'm just wondering when we'll get the oralists screaming "I can't understand this!!!" (remember the Keith Wann flame war?)

*spit take* WINDOWS MEDIA?! UGH! :topic: I can watch QuickTime and Windows Media and Real Player, but I prefer Ogg Theora video instead.
