Thank you and God bless you too, although there's nothing "amazing" about ASL. :-) Interesting side-note: most people who go to deaf schools do not generally have an education in formal English (the average reading level of the average deaf school graduate is a dismal 4th grade). In their writings, they will often think in sign language and then they write down the English equivalent. The result is exactly like f.Christian's writings (with no pronouncation).

I think f.Christian's just trying to sound "poetic", or something...
