  • Excuse me, Tar...calling current and former oralists machines is rather insulting. You've insulted me in a way regardless whether you claimed that language concept. Fuck if you know since you never experience in the oral environment, therefore you shouldn't make those such assumption at all.  You really don't deserve that kind of respect....not even from me.

  • Tar --

    I don't agree with you that because Hurwitz was raised orally, that means he will keep his oral philosphy, because it's hard to change. I was raised orally (and "successfully"), and today, I am a strong supporter of ASL and Bi-Bi education.

    That said, I do agree with you that I don't see Hurwitz as a strong supporter for change in HOW Deaf education and Deaf culture is handled and viewed by our society, unfortunately. Yes, he signs, but he is still a victim of the oralist ideas.

  • Also, President of any of Deaf University should not be on netural side bec he doesn't know what he is talking about or doing and did not accomplish to solve many issues in RIT/NTID all along when I was student there since seven years ago I was enrolled there again. He is out of order to be President of GU because he is not the second image of Laurent Clerc's success bec he has his own brainwash by AGBELL s philosophy views and did not change for the better at all. Same with his wife as well.

  • Another possible path of that.. There ya go! =)

  • I am with ASLteachesUS all the way. Of course we are the Deaf Battery-Operated people that forced us to wear those stupid machine. They made us into a robot machine to act out like a Shadow Hearing people that would be much easier for Hearing people to deal with us meanwhile we are struggled that we cannot be ourselves as a REAL natural deaf people. and our native sign language. Thanks!

  • I agreed with you!

  • Bingo! Thank you! I know my own stuff and you know your own stuff too.

  • With all due respect, I don't agree with you. If Alan is a machine and that means I'm a machine too.

  • Hiya Mark!

    Maybe I didn't clear up in this point. Dr. T. Alan. Hurwitz doesn't understand the whole access of the language. In his presentation, you could tell that he seen confused with it. I wish that I could also add MOST of the machine people are alike that. I know youre one of machine but youre not THAT! =)

  • Smiles... yeah I know what you mean but the BOTTOMLINE is he signs and that would be a GREAT insult to Central Institute for the Deaf at St. Louis where he was brought up.  CID taught people NOT to sign and he already broke that barrier so give him some credit will ya? :) Oh by the way, my name is not Mark, it's Mikey. :)
