    Hi Marsha,<br>
    Andrew Cohen<br>
    Gave a Protactile seminar at the Deaf-Blind Camp in Maryland.  Randy
    Pope's president of the AADB wife has organized monthly Protactile
    workshops that meet in restaurants.  They just had they one year
    anniversary of the group.  It is very popular.<br>

      <div>Hi, Marsha, PT is Protactile, we sign PT. </div>
      <div>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. </div>

                          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 </font></div>
