@articspider He wasnt made "Fun of" Jeff Garlin was just messing with him, which in turn gave him a spotlight for a minute. Theres a difference between goofing around, and truly making fun of disability, and I know what was going on there wasnt the latter. Signing live would be hard I imagine, so thats probably why he was acknowledged in an uncoventional way.
@TylerHaslett Whatever word you want to use (messing with/made fun of meaning almost the same), I still thought it was a bit rude and out of line. Garlin wasn't the only one "messing with" the interpreters. I was right there watching the whole thing live. But at least this guy got him back at the end. That was the best part.
@articspider I agree with %100, the guy getting him back was amazing, that was what I was refering to. If he wasnt "messed with" he maybe wouldnt have expressed his very well done creative stage nature.
Xavier, you rock! One of the best interpreters in SF.

I hope he wasn't too angry. He was made fun of.
