You’re signing too loud!!! 7 January, 2009 at 5:54 pm

So, on the train this evening …

I generally sit in the “quiet car”, no talking no calls etc. And at the front of the car this evening, a group of 3 or 4 folks sat down signing. Now, I’m thinking “well, they won’t have a problem in the silent car. They can keep on talking with no problem!”

A few minutes later one of the regulars got up and went over and signed at them for a while. She was telling them that they were in the quiet car and needed to quiet down. Apparently they were laughing. Out loud. And I guess, like many deaf folks I’ve met, they weren’t aware of how loud they were laughing.

It’s just amusing that she had to ask the deaf people who were signing to quiet down :o
