That's true. Hmm. Looks like I'll need to find a way to pay for that 5 year thing. I don't do PayPal, but I wonder if something other than snail mail could be done.

I got that part worked out. It shouldn't be a problem if I can learn to resist spending the dough I already have saved.
Do cell phones cause accidents on the road?
That is a chat topic for today.
Do cell phones cause accidents on the road when driving a car etc.
Laws in Ontario Canada.
Ontario's ban on hand-held devices while driving took effect on October 26, 2009.
The law makes it illegal for drivers to talk, text, type, dial or email using hand-held cell phones and other hand-held communications and entertainment devices. The law also prohibits drivers from viewing display screens unrelated to the driving task, such as laptops or DVD players, while driving. The use of hands-free devices is still permitted, and drivers may use hand-held devices to call 9-1-1.
'Hands-free' use means that apart from activating or deactivating the device, it is not held during use and the driver is not physically interacting with or manipulating it. Actions such as dialing or scrolling through contacts, or manually programming a GPS device, for example, are not allowed.
Drivers caught using a hand-held device will face a set fine of $225 plus a victim surcharge and court fees for a total of $280. Drivers who challenge the ticket in court face fines of up to $500.
Should we have this law everywhere in the World?

Trainman, do you know sign language or ASL?
If not, how do you communicate with people? I recall you said you use pen and paper?

Many of the things you put up have "English (automatic captions)". These are not captioned by a human.
They are transcribed by a machine dictation program, and often make no sense whatsoever . They are nothing like captioning which is done by a person, and tells you what is said accurately, plus what happens in background.
And when you say you don't read sign language, that is what it is like for a lot of the rest of us when you put up all these many , many videos that we can't understand.
It's a huge waste of space on a deaf forum.
I think I understand now.
Were I live in Ontario we watch TV and it has Closed Caption on it in English.
We do read the english that someone types in and is payed to do this too so we can understand what is going on.
I think now I know what you mean if it does not have sign language on it you cannot understand it.
May I ask kindly what country are you from please.
I will seek out sign language on videos but then some of us cannot read sign language. It is a situation is it not for us eh.
I do understand now what you are talking about we do the best we can being deaf on communications.
Some read sign and some read read English. That is a problem.
Some churches have sign languages but not to many , I see the government has sign with someone doing it.
Many thanks Bottesini for your input on this it does help understand on both sides.
Keep well.

I think you don't understand what I am telling you at all. I am from the United States and obviously I am writing to you in English.
I have given you a concise explanation of why deaf people who read English need proper captioning, and if you can't comprehend it so be it.
I have a feeling nothing I tell you is going to get through.

Anyone who comes to Alldeaf obviously knows English. This is an USA based forum. But not all of them know sign language.

I'm in Chicago area and Deaf Community is pretty strong here. There are also deaf events that I go to in Grand Rapids, MI, NW Indiana, and part of Wisconsin.
I hope that Deaf Communities around my area can send positive vibes to your area. Hopefully a Deaf Community or 2 can be set up in your area.
