[This is from the Silent Talk Conference]

SEE 1 and SEE 2 are both normally dropped by deafies once they begin
assciating withtheir own kind. The inherit artificialness of the language
and its resulting sense of incompleteness when compared with ASL as
a smooth communication medium contributes to its simply being dropped
in favor of ASL. You and I are just two examples of many people who
went thru this process and may others will follow.
