Nowadays some record companies are just interested in making bucks and playing it safe by hiring those musicians they can shape and shift according to their vision. Where's hard rock when we need it? <br /><br />Even deaf musicians are ignored, too.

But I do know of a few deaf New Yorkers who do actually sign very fast! Same as some hearing New Yorkers (especially those from Long Island) who speak very fast! (True - that's what my hearing friend who was with me in NYC heard!)<br /><br />D.Dan McClintockhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01728379143131241025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36130815.post-50961413472965007602007-01-17T13:22:00.000-08:002007-01-17T13:22:00.000-08:00HIlarous!
