- Donya, there's no need to feel like you will be rejected by deaf people. You
- are very welcome to use DEAF-L. The more people there are on it, the merrier it
- is! I am deaf myself. I can see that you are quite anxious to avoid offending
- deaf people.

- Anyway, have a good day in the USA. It is a very good day here in New Zealand.
- Cheers,
- Barry.
