<div><font size="2" color="#000000" face="Arial">Just received:<br><br>'I just learned about
the death of eminent linguist and leader in the sign language field,

It is definitely worth reading, not only to note his personal
achievements, but also to learn more about sign language interpreting
in general and the fight waged to have sign language acknowledged to be
a "language" at all. </font></div>
