{SPEAKER name="Dick Moore/Sheila Grinell (interpreter)"}
Okay.
[00:12:09]
If someone who knows how to fingerspell it'll help you to understand what I'm trying to tell you right now.
[00:12:20]
Tree. [[silence while story is signed]]
[00:12:38]
{SPEAKER name="Jo Radner"}
How many of you caught that?
You see what he's doing?
{SPEAKER name="Dick Moore/Sheila Grinell (interpreter)"}
Can you guess what that was?
[00:12:46]
A bird going up a tree and then flying away. Almost, almost. It was a butterfly.
[00:12:57]
{SPEAKER name="Jo Radner"}
Would you do it again?
[00:12:59]
{SPEAKER name="Jan DeLap/Sheila Grinell (interpreter)"}
Explain that you did spell it.
[00:13:02]
{SPEAKER name="Dick Moore/Sheila Grinell (interpreter)"}
Well, ok. Here's the tree. And this is a B, B - U - crawling up the tree is the U. T, crawling up again, T. E is eating away here. R is hanging. F is flying. L - Y - flying away.
[00:13:32]
{SPEAKER name="Jo Radner"}
See that.
{SPEAKER name="Dick Moore/Sheila Grinell (interpreter)"}
Did you get it?
[[APPLAUSE]]
[00:13:38]
{SPEAKER name="Jo Radner"}
Thank you very much. That's a very good example.
[00:13:41]
There are many other kinds of folklore and of course the whole span of folklore ranges from stories of personal experience that you like to tell over and over again until they get to be your own personal form of art.
[00:13:52]
To things like this which are kind of formal performances and you sort of announce you're going to do it and you stand there and do it and people watch and admire it.
[00:14:01]
I wonder if we could ask some of these people to tell some of their favorite stories that have some relation to the Deaf community. Or perhaps some of the favorite stories or jokes in the Deaf community.


Transcription Notes:
Dick Moore is voiced by an interpreter. There is one line that is the interpreter's voice but it's impossible to tell who she is voicing (except that it isn't Dick). Fairly confident the moderator is Jo Radner
