about the age of 18 ... a long time ago. We both were earning about signing

as her parents made her learn lipreading and did not allow what they felt to

be a 'crutch'. In her case it must have worked. I went with her for about

two weeks before I knew she was deaf even though she was a counslor at a

camp for the deaf in Hunter NY. i surprised I recall the name of the town

it's that long ago .. 40 years +/-. We were dancing and she changed

partners with her girlfirnd. Though we were next to each other on the dance

floor, her back was to me when I asked her a question. The girl I was

dancing with said that I had to wait till she could see me before asking.

we both worked on learning some of the signs the remainder of the summer.

> Back to the question. I saw the 'South Florida' in the groups name.

East Coast?, Gulf Coast? Both?. Would you know if there is someone, or

someplace in the Boca or WPB area where I could try to learn at least enough

to be helpful when someone seems lost or in need of something?

> Thanks very much for taking the time to read this. If you have any

questions that you need to know to feel more comfortable about giving me any

information, please feel free to ask. I also run a few groups on both MSN

and , two on cooking, on on clip art and the other 2 are on-line arms

for two Rainbow groups that meet locally. One, a GLBTP tat meets at the UU

Fellowshop Hall in Boca the other a women over 40 group that meets at the

GLCC (Compass) in West Palm. I am therefor very cautious as to how 'real'

cyber people are.
