Submitted by Gavin Lightfoot – Deadline to sign up by: 21 February 2007 – Signatures: 5,015
I can think of fewer more useful skills to teach someone than a new way of communicating, unhindered by ambient noise. Think trying to order drinks in a noisy bar, trying to hold a conversation on a train station platform with a freight train rumbling through. Of course it would also make life easier for people who rely on sign language as their primary mode of non-written communication.
