I respect intellectual property and Amy's hard work. But the *gift* of passion and information she displays is a gift that will help many, many more if we can share, share, share. There are lots of opportunities to make money. This video, Amy's hard work, is a sure-fire way to inform the general public and truly make CHANGE! Yes, cali, yes.

Really cool and please check it out when you can. Thanks! The link is: http://reverseplanet.blogspot.com/ All the best, Darren Amy -

I've already seen it and don't see the need to pay for it. But if this is going to be an educational tool for parents out there, then it should be free! Amy, you make great videos all the time and I applaude your work. I guess the decision is yours and I respect that. If you donate most of it to DBC, then, it will be towards a good cause and a very good reason for me to pay for it. However, I would much prefer a DVD version shipped to me, only if the proceeds go to DBC. Keep up the good work!

What about people who cannot afford it or don't understand PayPal etc? Education should be free!

You've made up your mind, and I'm not going to try to convince you otherwise. I agree with you that this is your intellectual property to do with as you please. But this message is too important to lock up like this. Hearing people who are clueless or hearing parents just starting to do research won't pay. This should be free in order to have the most impact. I'm all for deaf people not being taken advantage of anymore. We should demand equal respect and equal compensation, which is what you're doing. I agree with you on that point... ...but not for this. While I have mixed feelings, I'm more disappointed than anything else. Now hearing parents who Google deafness are going to be directed to one of your two sites, only to be locked out and told to pay. They aren't going to pony up the dough. Our biggest problem has been our inability to bypass the audiologists and reach the parents directly. Now the Internet has helped to level the playing field. I think your entry is one of the top 5 most valuable for hearing parents, if not number one. And now it's not going to be accessible to them. That's a damn shame. Amy,

You have finally made a breakthrough by marketing especially by a Deaf person which is about time! It is your baby to spread the word about the irony of using signs with hearing babies but auditory only to Deaf babies. That will become a crying matter to the eyes of the public. I truly wish your marketing a full of success and that the ironic message will make a difference. Hats off to you, Amy!
