CUED SPEECH IS NOT NATURAL LANGUAGE OF THE DEAF!

Dear Mr. Townsend:

I saw your article that was on WHSV.COM.

I personally do NOT agree with your article.

Cued Speech will NOT gain popularity among deaf.

It is not the natural language of the deaf!

American Sign Language is the true natural language of the deaf.

George Veditz in 1913 said, ""As long as we have deaf people on earth, we will have signs. And as long as we have our films, we can preserve signs in their old purity. It is my hope that we will all love and guard our beautiful sign language as the noblest gift God has given to deaf people."

Someone is misleading you!

Thank you!
