Guest guest Posted June 18, 2003 Report Share Posted June 18, 2003 Sharon, The fact that you tried is a wonderful effort on your part. You are still adjusting to your implants and I'm sure that doing this was a tremendous challenge but appreciated by those who you helped. I've often thought that CI users would make great ASL interpreters. Sounds like it could work.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2005 Report Share Posted November 19, 2005 The email I got said that they want to be more inclusive of all people with hearing loss, not just " hard of hearing " ; so changed their name in the effort to change that image of " selective group " . C. N22 21 years. -- SHHH Does anyone know the reason for SHHH changing its name? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2008 Report Share Posted September 24, 2008 Andy certainly deserves this award. Wouldn't it be nice if he got credit for his work in his lifetime? Does anyone have time to write up the nomination statement? Is this something that each individual would send in or would we send it in as a group?

Guest guest Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 I think this is a great idea. I really believe one day Andy will be regarded as a genius by the masses.
