Before I've focused more on what I thought would be useful, or what I wanted to have myself for SignWriting. But now I want to explore abit more on the emotional side of things. I could be people in the Deaf community, their family, friends, employers or any other group of people related to SignWriting.<br><br><br>Please send me all of your crazy ideas too.<br><br>Thanks<br><br>Jonathan<br><br>________________________________________________<br><br><br>SIGNWRITING LIST INFORMATION<br><br>Valerie Sutton<br>SignWriting List moderator<br>sutton@signwriting.org<br><br>Post Messages to the SignWriting List:<br>sw-l@listserv.valenciacollege.edu<br><br>SignWriting List Archives & Home Page<br>http://www.signwriting.org/forums/swlist<br><br>Join, Leave or Change How You Receive SW List Messages<br>http://listserv.valenciacollege.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=SW-L&A=1<br></div></div></blockquote></div><br></div></body></html>________________________________________________
