An interesting variety of discussions and subject matter. I have just returned from Venice for a trip to the Biennale. The theme this year is “Think with your senses, Feel with your mind” Somehow I can’t help relating this to our deaf issues and the way that we react to some quite sensitive points of view that inevitably get cut throat responses. I wonder if we were to put into practice the theme as shown, we would be better off with understanding each other in a more ‘civilised’ way! The exhibition was not about deaf issues, of course, but more on the lines of contemporary art from around the world. Tracy Emin represented Britain and I have to say her works were brilliant. That aside, noteworthy is the fact that Italian TV put up a lot of sign language on programmes such as the news. Good to see your Blog Fintan, thanks for it. Fintan

Medical treatment “a step closer”

RNID Research Programme Executive Dr Catriona Crombie believes a pill to prevent hearing loss is now one step closer. “This is a massive breakthrough which will enable us to focus future research,” she said. “It will also increase the probability of finding medical treatment that could prevent the onset of hearing loss in later life.”

At £300+ for each stage and with not working it's way out of my reach. Also did you go on to learn to successfully sign as it may sound stupid but I'm wondering how a HOH person would get on in a class of hearing people who I suppose (unless they've got deaf children) must be learning BSL for working with the deaf, rather than needing it for their own personal use.
