{SPEAKER name="Jan DeLap/Shirley Schultz (interpreter)"}
Let me introduce Dick Moore.
{SILENCE}
And Libby Hathaway. This is Steve Jones. Okay, it's important. Which one is the hearing one, and which ones are deaf?
What do you think?
[00:39:42]

Is he hearing or deaf?
Hearing, hearing or deaf?
[00:39:54]
I don't know, how do you know if they're hearing or deaf I mean how? It's truly an invisible handicap. And shall we confess? Who is hearing?
Da-dah.
[00:40:17]

Okay, we're really, a silent minority. We'll start our presentation with, well he's carrying my idiot cards. Oh okay interesting.
[00:40:40]
I'd like to show you a little bit of how deaf people interact and talking with hearing people, or hearing people interacting with deaf people.
[00:40:52]

Well often it depends upon body language. You can look and understand what's going on. For example I'll show you a brief encounter at a bus stop.
[00:41:07]
Imagine that this is a bus stop, here's the bus coming this way. Okay, so we're watching for the bus. A deaf man is standing here waiting for the bus to come. See what happens. Watch.
