No, rather..., I have "lived it" from the inside out to the outside in -- in such a way that no hearing person *nor* any deaf person can know. There are a few of us around like that, who don't live in either culture.

My, how unique you are! Do you prefer to be celebrated in verse, or in song?

You said -- "My, how unique you are!"

Those are just the facts. Just like the facts of where you were born and how old you are. My facts make it that way.
