It WAS my concern that too MANY deafies are impatient with us neophytes 
at signing. An attitude CAN become prevalent. I think that deaf folks who 
do not tolerate the honest attempts of the hearing to learn sign are 
isolating themselves further from the mainstream and making it that much 
more difficult to grant them equality in the workplace, etc.
