We'll begin to share as if we knew that person for months and months, very warm.

{SPEAKER name="Dick Moore/John Ennis (interpreter)"}
My first experience, well I can't really remember, because I went to the clubs from when I was a little kid. My parents are deaf.

[00:12:32]
My deaf grandmother went to the club also.

[00:12:37]
Really the deaf club, is the best center for deaf to get together and exchange the news, interesting things that have happened you want to know.

[00:12:55]
Every state has a club. Really there's no problem for me to make new friends. How could I find some deaf friends in another state? Very easy. One easy way is to get to the deaf club and make and meet new friends.

{SPEAKER name="Simon Carmel"}
I'm curious, I'd like to know something. Suppose you go to another state, and you find a deaf club, in another state, you know, different from here in Maryland. How do you find it?


[00:13:26]
{SPEAKER name="Dick Moore/John Ennis (interpreter)"}
We have a directory, the directory gives us a list of the different clubs all over the United States.

{SPEAKER name="Simon Carmel"}
What do you mean "it's in a book."?

[00:13:36]
{SPEAKER name="Dick Moore/John Ennis (interpreter)"}
Yes.

[00:13:38]
{SPEAKER name="Simon Carmel"}
"In a deep book"? I mean is there any other publications like maybe the deaf american?

[00:13:46]
{SPEAKER name="Dick Moore/John Ennis (interpreter)"}
Yes. You would find that there. We have several national publications for the deaf in the United States.

[00:13:52]
People going to other states look up on the back of a magazine for example, there'll be a list of deaf clubs and they can go to another state and visit the club.

[00:14:05]
{SPEAKER name="Simon Carmel"}
Did you ever feel going to a deaf club did you feel like a stranger or what, can you explain about that?

[00:14:13]
{SPEAKER name="Dick Moore/John Ennis (interpreter)"}
I always felt a very warm feeling there, easy to make new friends for example--
