Countdown to ADA Anniversary 6 days to go! This starts the second year of the 'famous' "Countdown to ADA Anniversary" series of postings designed to enrich, enlighten, educate, and empower people with hearing disabilities and guide them toward the promised land of fairness, equality, and justice. It is my intention to help as many people with hearing disabilities become activists on their own. A number of my posts will contain very valuable information. I am celebrating the eighth anniversary of the sweeping legislation, The Americans with Disabilities Act, by educating the community of people with hearing disabilities. Join me in this celebration by forwarding my posts to other mailing lists if you can.
