Communication improving

I still think deaf people on the whole are not at par with hearing people. I would like to see the world recognize deaf people as equal to hearing people. In order to be equal to hearing people, we need full communication.

Using technical devices like the Blackberry and video phone where you can see a person signing help make this happen. Close captioning everywhere, for TV and movies would be good. It's improving and doors are continuing to open up for communication.
