Hi, Marsha, PT is Protactile, we sign PT.
I like it because it allows me information sighted hearing people take for 
granted, like facial expression, people laughing, interpreters switching, if 
I'm giving a presentation, I can tell if someone wants to make comment 
because someone draws a line on my back to indicate that.  So I don't have 
to stop signing to receive that information.  Also, if I'm chatting with a 
DBP, they can express understanding, agreement, laughter, all kinds of 
emotions, and I can do likewise without interupting that tactual ASL 
conversation.

    Hi,
    I use PT in my everyday communication with interpreters and with other 
DB.  I find it very helpful, especially as a presenter and teacher to know 
how my audience and student are feeling about what I say.  If you have any 
questions, I can try to answer them.

        Hay I was looking  around on blind how's site!  It was pretty 
interesting!  I was wondering if some blind folks might show how they do ASL 
and also give a deaf-blind perspective on how to do different things! I 
could not find any videos on this or articles ; unless I missed something! I 
put deaf blind in the search, and the results seem to have nothing to do 
with what I put in the search!  It got me thinking about this when I read an 
article  online, pro-tactile The DeafBlind Way! It was a really good 
article.  It was something I never thought about before I read the article 
and it made sense to me the points in the article! I thought it should be on 
blindhow's site too!  You  can sign up for an account and post content to 
the site   in the form of videos and articles!  I wonder if you can send an 
article about the "i can connect," program.    73 Heather
